Abstract :
Human resource productivity is one of the main concerns in organizations. In total,100 factors According to on three main sources: 1- Opinions of experts and academic professors, 2- Using project technical documents, 3- Previous similar research studies and related scientific sources, were identified and categorized into four groups: plan human resource management, acquire project team, develop project team, and manage project team. Questionnaires were distributed among 103 members of the target population who were active construction contractors in Iran. The questionnaires were analyzed using two methods: Relative Importance Index (RII) and the Fuzzy Logic (FL). Ten factors that had the highest impact, based on the two methods, on HRP efficiency in the projects were identified and compared. The results of fuzzy logic and RII method showed that both methods were highly similar in terms of outcomes. In addition, the results indicated that “lack of proper communication between the technical office and workshop” was the most important factor based on the two techniques mentioned.
