| description | This paper explores the application of supply chain management (SCM) in the
Indian construction industry. The authors studied the SCM practices followed in flyover
projects and compared them with the seamless SCM model for construction proposed by a
previous study. A case study approach was followed for the research work. Structured
interviews were conducted to understand the SCM practices in flyover projects in India. The
developed model advocates leading roles for client and strategic needs analysis and value
management study that are missing in the studied projects. All of the projects studied faced
cost and time overruns. The seamless SCM model may be extended to developing countries
by incorporating requirements related to the long-term relationship between project agents
and, if possible, by suggesting that clients should not select agents using only the minimal
cost criteria. The extended model also proposes SCM training for all project agents before
the start of the project. Strategic needs analysis and value management study should be an
integral part of the construction project to improve project efficiency. Implementing the
seamless SCM model calls for the early involvement (i.e., at the project design stage) of all
project agents. Project sponsors can apply the findings of this study to manage time and
cost overruns. |
