My research interests focus on contractual and relational governance on construction projects. My current interests focus on the stage of contractual violation, which is greatly related to law and enforcement. I am also very interested in the relationship between contract and trust, especially under different cultural environments. I am looking forward for some inspirations from other disciplines, law, psychology, Natural Language Processing in Contract Management, and finance for example.

I am also interested in risk and BIM in construction project management.

I am leading a research collaboration among LSBU, UCL and Tianjin University. The research collaboration is focused on Value creation and project governance (Relational and Contractual).

I am also very interested in providing consulting services for construction companies.
