A Review on Critical Success Factors for Sustainable Infrastructure Construction Project Portfolios

This research seeks to identify the critical success factors for sustainable infrastructure project delivery. It will focus on 18 infrastructure priority areas framed into three categories which are energy and environment, people and communities, and connections. The successful delivery of infrastructure projects presents a unique set of challenges that must be addressed to ensure the sustainability and success of infrastructure construction projects. The research will help define the true nature of the challenges and potential for change to help close the infrastructure deficit gap. Furthermore, this research will explore the various cross cutting factors such as skills and human capacity, energy efficiency and environmental sensitivity, state of existing infrastructure, accessibility, climate change adaptation, governance and ownership that contribute to the successful delivery of infrastructure projects. This study identifies and discusses the essential components and critical project management success factors for sustainable infrastructure (CPMSF) that may help ensure the successful completion of the project. This paper forwards the framework that has been provided for this investigation.
