Abstract

Following the increasing rate of disasters’ impacts on societies, more attention is being paid to recovery projects after these disasters. However, from the perspective of project management, recovery projects show a significant degree of differences from regular construction projects. Although some progress has been made on this topic, further research is needed to smooth pathways for the management of disaster recovery projects. This paper provides a management framework for disaster recovery projects through a qualitative analysis of the research’s selected resources. The resources selected from academic online platforms have been coded by NVivo 2020, and corresponding groups have been made for the disaster recovery lifespan and project stages separately. An integrated management framework has been put forward throughout the simultaneous application of the research’s suggested lifespan and project stages. The most significant observation of this study is the necessity of applying a continuous lifespan to address projects’ long-term goals and provide an experience-based database to manage the next disasters. The significant role of planning in the entire lifespan of recovery projects, recognition of the tasks that need to be handled continuously during their entire lifespan, the necessity of simultaneous consideration of tangible and intangible recovery outcomes are the other findings of this study. The reconstruction stage is identified as part of the more extensive system, which stresses the necessity of considering the recovery project as a whole system.
