Although risk management (RM) is accepted as one of the critical success factors for construction projects, project participants generally do not have sufficient knowledge pertinent to RM concept and the number of support tools which facilitate the process is rather low. Decision support tools are necessary for the systematic identification of risks, scenario generation, and proactive management of risk and integration of RM activities with other project management functions. The aim of this study is to introduce a conceptual RM model and a prototype RM decision support system which is specifically developed for construction companies. The proposed decision support system, namely Integrated Risk Management System (IRMS), is designed to support the user at all phases of the RM process and to assist cost estimation in the bid preparation stage. The performance of the tool is tested on six international construction projects. Results demonstrate that IRMS can be used effectively for systematic management of risks and its prediction capability is high. Shortcomings of the tool and necessary refinements are also reported.

A Decision Support System for Project Portfolio Management in Construction Companies
Bilgin, Gozde; Dikmen Toker, İrem; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat; ÖZORHON ORAKÇAL, BELİZ (2022-11-01)
Project portfolio management requires a systematic process that comprises assessment of portfolio risk and expected profitability, as well as strategic fit of individual projects with company objectives. After a needs analysis based on literature findings and surveys with experts, in this study, a process model and a tool, COPPMAN (COnstruction Project Portfolio MANagement), were developed to support project portfolio decisions in construction companies. COPPMAN was developed in collaboration with construct...
A Life cycle costing based decision support tool for cost-optimal energy efficient design and/or refurbishments
Emekci, Şeyda; Tanyer, Ali Murat; Department of Architecture (2018)
In construction sector, deciding on building investment / refurbishments can be a complex process because it involves multiple criteria and generally conflicting objectives. For this reason, in the early phase, it is necessary to carry out an analysis that can enhance the predictability of these decisions taken, determine the optimum points of conflicting decisions and at the same time increase the social, environmental and economic sustainability. In the analysis, the total cost incurred building life cycl...
A critical review of risk management support tools
Dikmen Toker, İrem; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat (null; 2004-09-03)
It has been claimed by many researchers that "a risk driven approach" to project management is necessary to increase the success of construction projects. Literature is very rich in conceptual frameworks to overcome the informality of risk management efforts. However, risk management paradigms exist as methodologies rather than systems which can fully support the risk management process. The existing risk management support tools are usually based on quantitative risk analysis whereas the other phases are c...
A SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINE METHOD FOR BID/NO BID DECISION MAKING
Sönmez, Rifat (2017-01-01)
The bid/no bid decision is an important and complex process, and is impacted by numerous variables that are related to the contractor, project, client, competitors, tender and market conditions. Despite the complexity of bid decision making process, in the construction industry the majority of bid/no bid decisions is made informally based on experience, judgment, and perception. In this paper, a procedure based on support vector machines and backward elimination regression is presented for improving the exi...
A knowledge representation tool for architectural spaces : a study on surgery unitsh
Us, Mehta; Tanyer, Ali Murat; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2019)
The nature of construction projects is very iterative and there are various people involved from different disciplines and organizations in the process. Design stage is unique, complex and require combination and expertise of different people. The capture and reuse of design experience is considered as an efficient way to promote a better design process and efficient building solutions. The smallest part in a building is the space. It is a long-term asset of a building; therefore, a space knowledge manageme...
