Innovation and learning in complex offshore construction projects
Open accessAbstract
Abstract Concern about the poor performance of the construction industry, in the UK and elsewhere, is coming at a time when its customers are demanding more and projects are becoming increasingly complex. Many of the industry's performance problems stem from inadequate inter-organisational co-operation. The paper explores the problems and solutions in aligning the construction industry more closely to its customers in CoPS-type projects. Using the example of a high value, high complexity offshore oilfield construction project, the paper examines the use of ‘partnering’ as a tool for stimulating performance gains at the project level and innovation and learning benefits at the organisational level.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
