Abstract Show Abstract

Infrastructure development is a cornerstone of economic growth, yet many projects suffer from delays, budget overruns, and quality deficiencies. This review paper explores the integration of construction management (CM) techniques with Quality Management Systems (QMS) to enhance the performance of infrastructure projects. Drawing from academic literature and a real-world case study of an urban expressway project in India, the paper examines the impact of advanced project management tools—such as CPM, EVM, BIM—and ISO 9001-based quality frameworks on cost, time, and construction quality. The case study demonstrates how a structured application of CM and QMS led to reduced delays, controlled costs, and improved compliance with national construction standards. The paper concludes with recommendations for adopting integrated management systems in future infrastructure endeavors, emphasizing the role of digital tools, training, and stakeholder coordination. This synthesis offers a pathway toward more reliable, efficient, and high-quality infrastructure development.
