Effective Construction Project DeliveryImproving Communication Performance in Non-Traditional Procurement Systems /[electronic resource] :by Titus Ebenezer Kwofie, Clinton Aigbavboa, Wellington Thwala. - 1st ed. 2020. - XIX, 186 p. 3 illus., 1 illus. in color.online resource.

Part I: The value of communication: Theoretical concepts and context nature of communication -- General introduction -- Understanding communication in construction project delivery -- Part II. Understanding the context of non-traditional procurement systems -- The case of non-traditional procurement systems and communication -- Procurement systems: Underscoring their particularities -- Non-traditional procurement systems -- Nature of barriers in construction communication performance -- Understanding communication effectiveness -- Critical factors for managing non-traditional procurement communication -- Part III: Improving construction communication -- Communication dynamics in non-traditional procurement communication -- Improving communication in non-traditional communication: The case of critical competencies -- Exploring information and communications technology for enhanced communication in non-traditional procurement -- Part IV: Way forward for communicating in the digital era -- The tenets for improving communication in non-traditional procurement.

This book focuses on the development of communication skills in the context of non-traditional procurement and construction projects. It helps readers to understand the fundamentals of non-traditional procurement, and highlights the inherent communication challenges that arise, as well as how to solve them. The book is divided into four parts, the first of which provides an introduction to communication, discussing the theoretical concepts and contextual nature of communication as well as its benefits. The second part goes into more depth, discussing communication in the context of construction project delivery and non-traditional procurement systems, what these two terms actually mean, and what effective communication looks like in these contexts. Part III offers solutions to the inherent challenges of communication, including the use of information and communications technology, while the book’s fourth and final part explores the future of construction communication. Given the scope of its content, the book represents a valuable asset for researchers, professionals and students in the areas of procurement management and construction management.
