Abstract: | This thesis explores the integration of supply chain partners within network governance cooperations during a project its design-phase, particularly focusing on Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) projects. The core aim was to assess the extent and efficacy of this integration and its impact on project dynamics. Employing a mixed-methods approach involving multiple case studies, the research analysed Collaborative Relationship Factors (CRF) of Suprapto (2006). While recognizing the principal contractor its integration efforts, the study pinpointed specific improvements within three out of four CRFs (Front-end definition, Relational attitudes and Teamworking quality) that warrant improvement. The study emphasizes the transformative potential of strengthening these collaborative factors, advocating a proactive approach from the principal contractor to enhance integration and enhance project success within the construction projects. |
