The Effects of Design Change on the Completion Time of Universitas Multimedia Nusantara Tower 3 Construction Project

Abstract

Project scheduling is the determination of the timing and sequence of operations in the project and their assembly to give the overall completion time. One of the benefits of project scheduling is to evaluate the effect of changes on the construction project. The objective of this research is to analyze the effects of design change on project completion time on the construction of Universitas Multimedia Nusantara Tower 3 project. There are five scopes of works that encounter changes, specifically are the work of façade, steel for canopy, landscape, mechanical-electrical, and structure-architecture-plumbing, which have total approved change orders value around 9.95% to the principal project contract. These change orders caused delay of project completion time from May 2017 to January 2018.
