Abstract :

Studies have indicated that there are fund mental differences between the project supply chain and operation supply chain and its management calls for different approaches. Considering the importance of project supply chain management, different models have been offered by developed countries, but according to the difference development models between the developed, developing countries, the characteristics of the supply chain management of these countries are very different. This study aimed at developing a conceptual model of project based construction industry in Iran to compare the structure of project supply chain management with existing challenges in project supply chain. Using construction theory the casual conditions of emerging of challenges infrastructure elements were indentified and the procedures of challenging management and its expected results were presented.
