Many public agencies and/or private owners have no standards that help them to select the most suitable delivery method for their capital projects; hence, in some cases, this results in selecting the inappropriate project delivery method. This adversely impacts the project performance and leads to many negative consequences; starting with schedule growth, cost overrun, and may end up in an epic failure of the project. This research mainly focuses on developing a guideline to help owners make the decision on selecting the most appropriate delivery method for their capital projects. This research goes through three stages: Stage 1 - An extensive literature review of past research is conducted to conclude the selection factors considered in the decision-making process and the decision analysis technique and the project delivery methods; Stage 2 - This stage includes building up the selection model and setting out its guidelines; Stage 3 - This is the final stage of the research thread and includes the validation of the selection model through applying this model on some case study projects by industry practitioners, then evaluating the final results. The owner’s guideline for project delivery method selection, developed within this research, is designed to help owners increase the project success likelihood by selecting the suitable project delivery methods during the pre-construction phase (planning phase of the project life cycle).
