ABSTRACT

There are high complexity aspects to consider in achieving success on EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) power plant projects namely cost, quality, and time. This study aims to identify factors of team effectiveness that significantly affect the successful outcomes of the EPC power plant project either directly or indirectly. SLR (systematic literature review) based on project management journals is applied to identify the factors of team effectiveness. Delphi method is utilized to analyze their relevance and impacts on the project's success. We reveal 28 factors and the impacts that follow. Subsequently, we assess an EPC power plant project according to their implementation, importance, and frequency of problems by conducting a survey and a focus group discussion. Fishbone diagrams are employed to investigate the root causes and to seek improvements or solutions. Four factors are discovered and deemed to improve: respect, effective procurement or contract methods, communication, and decision-making.
