Risk management is an integral part of the construction management process. The overall objective of this study is to understand the depth to which risk management is applied in construction projects in Jordan and identify the barriers and challenges that may hinder the risk management process. The study will also highlight the benefits of applying risk management and how construction companies can improve their risk management process by adopting set of best practices.
