Conformity Assessment as a Tool for Organizational Learning in Large Engineering and Construction Projects

For the successful realization of large engineering and construction projects (LECPs), a systemic organizational learning framework for institutional cooperation is critical. Due to the long project life-cycle of LECPs, this is particularly important for this kind of project. The objective of this p...
