    (Federal University of Technology, Owerri, 2023-12) Asiegbu, Chukwudi Enyinnaya
    The major objective of this research work was to examine the causes of construction, projects delay and its effects on project delivery and that was to be accomplished by working at the following specific objectives: identifying the causes of delays in construction project delivery, ascertaining their effects on project delivery time project budgeted cost. To carry out the research work, a questionnaire was structured with the Likert-5-point scale and distributed to twenty-four respondents that were randomly picked. The respondents included Engrs, Architects, Surveyors, Builders, Projects Mangers, Clients, Contractors and others. The data collected was analyseby the help of the frequency Tables and percentage, while the hypothesis formulated for the study were analysed with the Multiple Regression Analysis in the SPSS software, version 23. The results and findings from the analysis showed that the major causes of delays,especially in Government owned projects are problems arising from funding, planning of the projects and their control. The study therefore concluded that clients, whether they are private or public ones, should endeavour to make funds available for project execution, so that project delivery would not be delayed.
