The civilian level of productivity in the construction industry is of direct interest to site managers and project management teams. Various researchers have tried to identify factors that affect productivity, but no general agreement has been reached. The purpose of this document is to develop a conceptual framework for site performance. The five main groups of independent variables, namely: project characteristics, labor characteristics, management system, resource management and the external environment, are identified as important for site productivity. This document provides an overview of construction productivity.
