From the Paper:

"Moyer-Angus (1993) claims that in construction management projects, it is important, among other items, to achieve the following objectives in the context of a performance review: (1) determine project goals; (2) determine type, scope, and depth of analysis; (3) define the methodology for analysis; (4) gather information and perform analysis; and (5) report recommendations based on the analysis. According to this view, it is key to know beforehand what will be measured, how it will be measured, with what data, and to what effect. This section will outline the performance measurement for this project to address such concerns."
