The USACE (United States Army Corps of Engineers) in the Middle East - Benefits and Experiences for Future Construction Challenges.

Abstract

This study is a management analysis of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) involvement in planning, engineering, and construction activities for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other nations in the Middle East. It documents the surveys and interview processes comprising the research phase, details the analysis process, and arrays detailed evaluations of USACE performance. The focus of the analysis is to identify significant lessons learned which would be of concern to USACE planners setting out to conduct future large-scale construction programs, overseas or in CONUS, where USACE has no existing relationships with the client organization. Originator-supplied keywords: Engineers, Management, Survey, Third World, Planning, Evaluation.
