AB  - Delays are often challenging in probably every organization and the construction industry is not an
exception. However, the alarming rate of delays in construction projects calls for debate and a critical
assessment into the real sources of delays in the industry. Industry studies have demonstrated that meeting
client’s requirements are firmly impacted by effectiveness of the project team. This study investigates delay
sources in the internal environment of construction projects through ‘4P’ framework analysis namely, project
management, project related, project participants and procurement. It is expected that the study’s framework
will be used for project performance assessment studies and benchmarking in the construction industry.
