Amal Fares Al-Kharabsheh*
ABSTRACT
Delays are of different types and researchers have their own criteria for evaluating and determining them. Delays have many causes that differ from one project to another, and the reasons are different and unique to each project. Efforts to reduce delays by mitigating or eliminating delays by expediting are measures that may or may be applicable in some cases and will depend on the projects being considered for these measures. Change is the main reason for the delay. If projects have no changes, projects will finish on time as there will be no disruptions or minor business downtime. Contractors also like to work on projects where designs are completed and there are no changes or disruptions. ?In an ideal world, all construction projects would finish on time, with no changes or obstructions. Despite the prevailing public perception that contractors cannot wait for project changes to begin because that is where they areClaimed to "make their money", most contractors would prefer their projects to be completed without changes.?
