Megaproject

A megaproject is an extremely large-scale construction and investment project.^[1] A more general definition is "Megaprojects are temporary endeavours (i.e. projects) characterised by: large investment commitment, vast complexity (especially in organisational terms), and long-lasting impact on the economy, the environment, and society".^[2]

Megaprojects refer not only to construction projects but also decommissioning projects, which are projects that can reach multi-billion budgets, and have a high level of innovation and complexity, and are affected by a number of techno-socio-economic and organizational challenges.^[3]^[4]

The OFCCP Mega Construction Project (Megaproject) Program involves projects valued at over $35 million.^[5]
