Abstract:

In the developing countries, there is a common lack of experience in construction management implementation. This study introduces a methodology to evaluate the human resources management processes in construction projects. The study used inputs, outputs, and tools and techniques recommended by the Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge [1]. The opinions of experts in the field of construction projects are collected regarding considered managerial parameters and tools. The analytic hierarchy process is used to evaluate the order of each parameter. The performance of each process is determined based on the importance weight and the proposed efficiency of each variable. The results of the implementation show that there is considerable progress in project planning, but team development and team management need much more attention. The study presents a methodology for human resources assessment in the construction industry but the findings are applicable to Kuwait and the similar developing countries.
