AHP-systems thinking analyses for kaizen costing implementation in the construction industry. (2020)
Journal Article
OMOTAYO, T., AWUZIE, B., EGBELAKIN, T., OBI, L. and OGUNNUSI, M. 2020. AHP-systems thinking analyses for kaizen costing implementation in the construction industry. Buildings [online], 10(12), article ID 230. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/buildings10120230

The incessant reportage of cost overruns and abandoned projects in contemporary literature have accentuated the need for a re-examination of the nature of the cost management strategies deployed to these projects. This study explores the potential of... Read More about AHP-systems thinking analyses for kaizen costing implementation in the construction industry..

Rethinking and optimising post-consumer packaging waste: a sentiment analysis of consumers’ perceptions towards the introduction of a deposit refund scheme in Scotland. (2020)
Journal Article
OKE, A., OSOBAJO, O., OBI, L. and OMOTAYO, T. 2020. Rethinking and optimising post-consumer packaging waste: a sentiment analysis of consumers' perceptions towards the introduction of a deposit refund scheme in Scotland. Waste management [online], 118, pages 463-470. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wasman.2020.09.008

Packaging waste production, especially single-use containers, is exerting detrimental effects on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, including human health. To internalise the externalities associated with single-use containers, different instruments...

A systematic review of circular economy research in the construction industry. (2020)
Journal Article
OSOBAJO, O.A., OKE, A., OMOTAYO, T. and OBI, L.I. 2022. A systematic review of circular economy research in the construction industry. Smart and sustainable built environment [online], 11(1), pages 39-64. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1108/SASBE-04-2020-0034

While circular economy (CE) is fast becoming a political and economic agenda for global urban development, there are still substantial knowledge gaps in possible strategies to speed up such transition, especially in the construction industry. This st... Read More about A systematic review of circular economy research in the construction industry..

Investigating the challenges of refinery construction in Nigeria: a snapshot across two-timeframes over the past 55 years. (2020)
Journal Article
IHEUKWUMERE, O.E., MOORE, D. and OMOTAYO, T. 2020. Investigating the challenges of refinery construction in Nigeria: a snapshot across two-timeframes over the past 55 years. International journal of construction supply chain management [online], 10(1), pages 46-72. Available from: https://doi.org/10.14424/ijcscm100120-46-72

The sub-optimal performance of state-owned refineries in Nigeria has led to a significant gap in the supply of refined petroleum products (RPPs) in the country. More so, the growing demand for these products has further widened the gap to the range o...

Purpose: Continual cost reduction of overhead costs of building projects can realign the concept of post-contract cost control towards value-driven construction projects and stakeholders’ satisfaction. This study synthesised and analysed the viable c... Read More about A systems thinking approach for incremental reduction of non-physical waste..

4D BIM integrated construction supply chain logistics to optimise on-site production. (2020)
Journal Article
MAGILL, L.J., JAFARIFAR, N., WATSON, A. and OMOTAYO, T. 2022. 4D BIM integrated construction supply chain logistics to optimise on-site production. International journal of construction management [online], 22(12), pages 2325-2334. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1080/15623599.2020.1786623

Loss of productivity through on-site delays and disruptions is a significant problem in the construction industry. This can be caused by workforce, materials, and equipment clashes. A major need for the industry is to improve construction logistic ef... Read More about 4D BIM integrated construction supply chain logistics to optimise on-site production..
