Abstract (Swedish)
Samverkan har använts som samarbetsform i svenska byggprojekt sedan mitten av 1990-talet. Samverkan har många fördelar såsom ökad transparens, större teamkänsla och högre kvalitet i projektet. Det har utförts många studier om samverkansprojekt men det finns inte så många studier som gjort kvantitativa mätningar om samverkansprojekt faktiskt är mer lönsamma och håller högre kvalitet.

Om- och dubbelarbete är ett stort slöseri i byggprojekt världen över men kunskapen om detta är ändå relativt låg i byggbranschen. Framför allt finns det en uppfattning att om- och dubbelarbete är en del av processen och att det antingen är omöjligt eller mycket svårt att minska förekomsten av detta. I regel vet man inte hur mycket om- och dubbelarbete som... (More)
Samverkan har använts som samarbetsform i svenska byggprojekt sedan mitten av 1990-talet. Samverkan har många fördelar såsom ökad transparens, större teamkänsla och högre kvalitet i projektet.

Om- och dubbelarbete är ett stort slöseri i byggprojekt världen över men kunskapen om detta är ändå relativt låg i byggbranschen. Framför allt finns det en uppfattning att om- och dubbelarbete är en del av processen och att det antingen är omöjligt eller mycket svårt att minska förekomsten av detta. I regel vet man inte hur mycket om- och dubbelarbete som förekommit i ett projekt, enbart hur mycket projektet gått över budget.

Tre fallprojekt som arbetar med samverkan behandlas i denna studie. En representant från beställar- och en från entreprenörssidan intervjuades i varje projekt. I tillägg intervjuades en konsult och en extern entreprenör med expertkompetens kopplat till samverkansprojekt.

Denna studie fann genom en litteraturstudie att runt 11,7% av ett byggprojekts totalkostnad går till om- och dubbelarbete. Dessa siffror är från byggprojekt som saknat samverkan. Kunskapen i branschen om detta slöseris storlek bedöms som relativt låg. I samverkansprojekt upplever respondenterna att det förekommer mindre mängd om- och dubbelarbete i projekteringsfasen men att mer kan göras för att förbättra produktionen. Förslag på hur man kan minska mängden av detta slöseri i framtida projekt tas upp, det viktigaste av dessa bedöms vara kopplat till kommunikation och kvalitetssäkring.

Slutligen har en modell för registrering av om- och dubbelarbete i framtida samverkansprojekt tagits fram. Flera faktorer som kommit upp i intervjuerna tas i beaktning, såsom att modellen måste vara lättanvänd och inte skuldbelägga en specifik aktör. Modellen har tagits fram som en Excelfil som kommer gå att använda i framtiden för att kvantitativt undersöka hur stort detta slöseri är i samverkansprojekt. Denna modell kallas för ”Omregmodellen.” (Less)
Abstract
Partnering has been used as a project form in the Swedish construction industry since the middle of the 1990’s. Partnering has many advantages such as increased transparency, a bigger sense of being a team and higher quality projects. There have been many studies done on partnering projects but there are not many not many of those studies that quantitively examines if partnering projects actually are more profitable and have a higher quality.

Rework is a big waste in construction project around the world but the knowledge surrounding this is still relatively low in the industry. In particular there is a view that rework is a part of the process and that it is either impossible or very hard to decrease its amount. Normally no one knows... (More)
Partnering has been used as a project form in the Swedish construction industry since the middle of the 1990’s. Partnering has many advantages such as increased transparency, a bigger sense of being a team and higher quality projects. There have been many studies done on partnering projects but there are not many not many of those studies that quantitively examines if partnering projects actually are more profitable and have a higher quality.

Rework is a big waste in construction project around the world but the knowledge surrounding this is still relatively low in the industry. In particular there is a view that rework is a part of the process and that it is either impossible or very hard to decrease its amount. Normally no one knows how much of a project’s cost that has gone to rework, normally the only thing that is know is that the project has gone over its budget.

Three projects that utilize partnering has been examined in the case study of this paper. One representative from the client and one from the entrepreneur was interviewed from each of the three projects. In addition, a consultant and one external entrepreneur with a lot of experience in partnering was interviewed.

This paper found through a literature study that around 11,7% of a projects total cost is taken up by rework. These numbers have been taken from projects that have not used partnering. The knowledge in the construction industry of the size of this waste is assessed to be relatively low. In partnering projects the respondents notice less rework during the design phase but that more work is required to see improvements in the construction phase. Suggestions on how to decrease this waste is presented, the most important of these seems to be linked to communication and quality assurance.

Finally, a model for registering rework in future partnering projects is presented. Several factors that emerged during the interviews are considered, such as that the model needs to be easy to use and doesn’t put blame on a specific actor in the project. The model is presented as an Excel file that will be able to be put to use in the future to quantitively examine how big this waste is in partnering projects. This model is called “Omregmodellen.” (Less)
