STRIKE Method: A Problem Management Framework to Accelerate Delivery in Construction Projects
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper presents the STRIKE Method; a structured problem management framework developed in the context of general construction projects. Initially applied in residential construction, this method proved effective in reducing project timelines and improving on-site coordination. The STRIKE Method Solve, Track, Report, Investigate, Keep Executing provides a practical, action-oriented approach to identifying and resolving issues that typically delay construction progress. Its application resulted in a reduction of the average project timeline from 10 to 6 months. By emphasizing proactive issue tracking, rapid decision-making, and continuous execution, the STRIKE Method aligns with Agile principles while addressing the unique demands of construction environments. This paper proposes STRIKE as a scalable and adaptable tool to enhance efficiency and responsiveness across several types of construction projects.
