| Summary: | This research is conducted to determine the delay factors in time and cost in the advanced construction project in the Kaubun irrigation network of East Borneo, to determine the effect of the most dominant factor, and to determine strategies that can be used by contractors to deal with these factors. Data analysis methods are not used in descriptive statistical, factorial analysis, and path analysis research. However, questionnaires are distributed to 43 respondents. They include the contractors, owners and supervisory consultants involved in the advanced construction project in the Kaubun irrigation network of East Borneo that had delays in time and cost target in the fiscal year of 2014. Based on research findings, significant factors affecting the delays in time and cost in the advanced construction project in the Kaubun irrigation network of East Borneo include: Human Resources factors with a standard β coefficient of 0.342; Material factor 0.326, Equipment factor 0.287, Work Environment factor 0.260; and Time Target factor 0.580. All independent variables do not have an indirect effect on the dependent variable (Y2) of Cost Target. The most dominant factor affecting the delay in time and cost target is Human Resources factor with a standard β coefficient of 0.342. The most dominant factor affecting the cost is the time target with a standard β coefficient of 0.580. A proposed strategy to regulate the delay in time and cost target in the advanced construction project in the Kaubun irrigation network of East Borneo is to recruit professional resources from outside East Borneo including Bali and Java because of competition and experience in demanding maximum work performance. Thus, contractors must prepare human resources with high skills and productivity and prepare foremen who have experience and are educated in the field of supervision in project implementation.
