| dc.description.abstract | Time has the least amount of flexibility, meanwhile impacts from schedules arrangements always result into conflicts, especially during the second half of building construction projects (implementation stage). As a result, the main purpose of this research was to investigate on time management practices associated with building projects in Tanzania. The approaches used to collect data in this research were questionnaires and interviews conducted from consulting and construction firms. It was revealed from this research that time management practices performance in building construction projects is poor. Numerous problems hindering the performance in time management for building projects have been found out. About 90 percent of respondents agreed on lack of knowledge and experience of people who are involved in building construction projects as the major reasons which, caused time management practices performance in building construction projects to be poor. Also, Bar or Gantt chart technique was widely used in building projects as compared to other techniques such as LOB, CPM, PERT, and PMS. It is therefore recommended that professional bodies and institutions like AQRB, ERB, CRB and NCC to prepare more continuing training on time management practices, in order to raise awareness to all professionals and workers who are involved in building projects. | en_US |
