  • Abstract:
    Despite the wealth of research that has sought to understand the causal nature of rework, it remains a recurrent problem in construction projects. Studies that have examined rework causation have tended to overlook the influence of errors and violations and the conditions that result from their occurrence. In filling this void, this paper identifies four underlying leitmotivs from an ongoing longitudinal study that aims to “make-sense” of rework causation. Addressing the chronic conditions that are identified in a systemic manner will provide construction organizations with the ability to make significant strides toward enacting an effective continuous improvement strategy to contain and reduce rework in their projects.
