Abstract
All industries now face an inescapable challenge of the term "sustainability". Construction project has been accused of causing environmental issues ranging from excessive consumption of global resources both in terms of construction and building operation to the pollution of the surrounding environment. It aims to balance the financial, environmental and operational aspects of every system in the development. However, to project contractors, the sustainable project requires a level of control over all aspects of the project. A typical consideration of this sort would refer to the inputs, processes and outputs of the production process, as well as any other positive effects and negative effects. The article identifies a balance model for project decisions that analysis the sustainability in combination with the specific quantification value and the estimating weight. Such outcome of the proposed model will contribute to project management.
