Abstract
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in construction sector are vulnerable and face exposure to risks whilst operating without risk management system in place. Evidence from market research and industry surveys confirm that SMEs underperform due to inability to manage operational risk challenges facing them. The objective of this study is to develop risk management software enabling SMEs in the construction sector to proactively identify, analyse and manage risks facing them to enhance business performance. Performance in the construction sector is assessed in terms of completion time, project execution cost and overall quality of delivery. Research framework based on balanced score card highlights risk indicators affecting performance. The risk software guides operator to avoid, minimise, mitigate or manage the relevant risks to enable successful performance outcome. The system will enable systematic risk management to achieve minimum cost and time overrun while optimising quality of delivery in a project management environment.
