摘要:This study aims to understand the critical success factors of HVAC projects in Saudi Arabia. In particular, this study focuses on the factors that lead to the failure of HVAC projects in Saudi Arabia. The study is exploratory and utilizes a questionnaire to collect data from 100 respondents that include engineers, HVAC project managers, HVAC manufacturing workers, HVAC supply chain professionals, HVAC quality controllers, HVAC technicians, and HVAC on-site implementers in major Saudi cities. The sample was selected using the purposive sampling method. Results show that the most critical failure factors of HVAC projects are quality control and assurance of HVAC parts, weak decision and delayed decision making, and extreme geographical conditions affecting HVAC. The implications of these results were discussed, and suggestions for future studies were given at the study's end.
