Diagnosing the Causes of Failure in the Construction Sector Using Root Cause
Analysis Technique

Faiq M. S. Al-Zwainy, Ibrahim A. Mohammed, and Ibrahim F. Varouqa

The aim of this study is identifying and diagnosing the causes of construction project
failure by using different project management process groups. These groups were
initiation process group, planning process group, design process group, contract process
group, executing and monitoring process group, and close process group. Also, the
relative importance of the causes of construction project failure was investigated. Three
techniques were used in this study: Ishikawa diagrams, Pareto diagrams, and 5-why
techniques. The results were generally identified and diagnosed thirty-five causes of the
construction project failure; however, only twenty-three of the causes were the most
important. The majority of causes (thirteen causes) were obtained by using executing
and monitoring project management process group. Seven causes were obtained by
using contract project management process group. In addition, fewer causes (only three
causes) were obtained by using initiation project management process group.
