Integrated Framework for Vendor Management: An Interpretivist Approach
Sanjeev Verma, Prateek Girdhar
| Abstract |
Studies show that many Indian construction projects are facing time and cost overrun. Vendor management is crucial for timely and within cost completion of any construction project. We used the interpretivist approach in this study to discover the critical parameters for effective vendor management. The grounded theory method with content analysis and thematic analysis helped in the development of the integrated framework. The integrated conceptual framework includes antecedents, moderators, and mediators of vendor management. The findings of the study are expected to play an instrumental role in improving the project management paradigm.
