Research on Key Factors of Cost of Prefabricated Building EPC Project Based on SNA
Publication: ICCREM 2022
ABSTRACT
From the perspective of the whole process cost of the assembly project, considering the front and integration characteristics of the key aspects of the project under the EPC model, a list of factors for cost control for prefabricated building EPC projects is established from four dimensions including design, procurement, construction, information technology, and environment. And then based on the social network analysis (SNA) method a cost factor network model is constructed, and quantitative analysis for cost factors is implemented from the point of network integrity and node centrality. Empirical research shows that this method reveals the invisible coupling relationship between the cost factors of prefabricated building EPC projects, which quantifying influencing factor characteristics and effectively identifying key elements. The research results can be used as a reference for the cost control of prefabricated building EPC projects.
