Evaluation of logistics factors on successful delivery of building construction projects in South East Nigeria

In most construction locations, many of the projects are facing logistic difficulties due to poor material coordination and inefficient planning. Therefore, this study developed a regression model to evaluate successful project delivery with respect to building construction logistics critical factors. The instruments for data collection and measurement were well-structured questionnaires on a Likert five-point scale, and also a semi-structured in-depth interview with personal observation to obtain responses from construction firms. The survey results were analyzed and interpreted with the use of SPSS software. It was found that the prediction of successful project delivery by the building construction logistic critical factors was not very reliable, with coefficients of determination and correlation of 36.4% and 60.3%, respectively. It was further revealed that only four out of seven critical logistic factor groups have a significant influence on achieving successful project delivery, while three critical logistic factors have no influence on project delivery.
