Abstract
Hydropower has played an important role in promoting the development of the economy and cost control is one of the key facts in the hydropower construction project. In order to carry out cost control effectively, we develop a model of the drivers affecting the implementation of cost control of hydropower construction project using an Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) framework. The various drivers of cost control of hydropower construction project (CHCP) are identified based on the relative literatures and on consultations with experts in the industry. And we calculate the weight values of these drivers in each layer of the ISM framework using Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP). The research has an obvious theoretic and practical value for distributing resources properly and reducing cost waste in the hydropower construction project. And it would help project manager to master cost control in the hydropower construction project and improve project management level.
