Abstract

This chapter delves into the critical success factors essential for sustainable infrastructure construction project portfolios. It begins by highlighting the significance of understanding these factors for project managers and stakeholders aiming to implement sustainability initiatives effectively. The literature review covers key aspects of project and project management, project success rates, project constraints, human factors, and strategic alignment. The methodology involves a thorough review of over 300 articles, identifying key critical sustainable project success factors. The chapter emphasizes the need for a conceptual framework to assess and control sustainability-related performance in construction projects. It concludes by stressing the importance of aligning social and technical systems for sustainable project success, as per the sociotechnical systems theory. This chapter offers valuable insights into the multifaceted nature of sustainability in construction projects and provides actionable strategies for project managers to ensure successful and sustainable outcomes.
