Abstract

Welcome to Issue 2 of Volume 8 of the Journal of Construction Business and Management. This issue brings together five papers that address important concerns in the practice of construction business and project management. The papers focus on project management performance, business survival, net-zero construction, digital transformation, and supply chain management. The studies show that construction performance depends on people, organisations, technology, finance, sustainability, and governance. They also show the need for practical strategies that can help construction organisations improve delivery, manage uncertainty, and respond to changing economic and environmental conditions. The articles in this issue were contributed by 20 authors from Nigeria, South Africa, and China. The studies are primarily set in sub-Saharan Africa construction contexts, proposing useful lessons for other emerging markets facing similar challenges.
