Abstract

Due to the reduce of the national investment and technology development, the market environment changes rapidly and the competition become more and more fierce, the situation require companies to improve the management level, at the same time the uncertainty and the complexity of construction projects also increase sharply, competition for scarce resources gradually intensified, all those factors leading to more and more difficult to complete the project timely, this paper adopt Delphi method to identify schedule risk, by introducing the severity index and important index as secondary indexes, through schedule risk analysis to determine the schedule risk control valve value (sensitivity index), take the sensitivity index as a valid trigger out decision basis of action, to build a comprehensive (project - activity layer) framework of project schedule risk identification, monitoring and correction organization. It can help project manager to identify the risk in advance, good for adopt some measures to control the risk and make the goal come true.
