Toward a Systemic View to Cost Overrun Causation in Infrastructure Projects: A Review and Implications for Research

Infrastructure cost overruns receive significant amount of attention in the academic literature as well as the popular press. The methodological weaknesses in the dominant approaches adopted to explain cost overrun causation on infrastructure projects are explored in this paper. A considerable amoun...
