Project management, self-organising, contracting system, governance systemAbstract
Some scholars held the idea that routinization can be the nature of project management. Nowadays, projects turn to be more complicated than before due to the increasing complexity of the communication between various actors within projects. Self-organising is pointed out to be used in managing construction projects instead of the traditional systems.This paper will mainly discuss whether self-organising is more efficient especially for the complex project. Meanwhile, three different systems: contracting system, governance system and self-organising will be simply explained. More importantly, both merits and demerits of these systems are going to be illustrated. Recommendations will be provided at the end.
