The appropriate use of heavy equipment will affect the progress of a construction project. An inappropriate choice of heavy equipment will result in low productivity and at the end will incur additional costs. Previous studies have been observing separately the effect of heavy equipment management on the performance of the construction project and the effect of heavy equipment of the performance of the construction company. In this present paper, using structural equation modelling (SEM), both relationships will be studied simultaneously and additionally direct effect of performance of construction project on the performance of construction company will be observed as well. It was found that both relationships were significant and positive.
