Abstract

This paper describes a system thinking conceptual framework which will be utilized in identifying uncertainties in infrastructure project during initiation stage deduced from literature review. It forms part of an ongoing PhD research project whose aim is to improve costing in infrastructure project to accommodate uncertainties. The paper concludes that system thinking approaches will enable key stakeholders in infrastructure project to identify and manage uncertainties that will impact on project goals adversely.
