Enhancing Efficiency in Industrial Metal Roof Replacement: Utilizing Goal Programming for Cost Optimization

Abstract

This study explores the use of Goal Programming (GP) to optimise project management decisions in the construction industry, focusing on a case study of a roof replacement project. The construction industry is crucial to a country's development, contributing significantly to economic growth and employment rates. However, construction projects are often complex and resource-intensive. Project management is essential in ensuring the successful completion of construction projects. The study uses GP to address the time-cost trade-off in project management, aiming to minimise project costs while meeting project deadlines and quality requirements. The GP model considers various constraints, such as the availability of workers and equipment, project duration, and budget limitations. The study presents two optimisation options: a time-focused option and a cost-focused ed option. The time-focused option prioritises timely project completion, while the cost-focused option aims to minimise project costs. In the case study, the time-focused option is the most suitable choice. This approach allows the project to be completed in time as the alternative option delay delays the project far too unacceptable. Overall, the study demonstrates the effectiveness of GP in optimising project management decisions in the construction industry. By carefully evaluating project constraints and objectives, GP can help construction companies achieve the best possible outcomes in terms of cost, time, and quality.
