Optimizing the Resource’s Mobility, Transportation, and Networking in the Project Construction Industry, Using a Fractal Method

When the number of projects in a company increases, it becomes very important to choose the right strategy to supply resources and raw materials in profit and loss and finish the work according to the schedule. This study presents a new mathematical model using the fractal method to optimize the resource planning system in project-oriented construction and industrial companies, and the results are analyzed. This article aims to introduce a fractal resource requirement planning (FRRP) model in project-oriented construction and industrial companies by providing a fractal framework to minimize resource costs and the smooth flow of materials between projects to meet the existing demand. Assuming three levels of headquarters, regions, and projects, each of them in the collection is a self-similar structure defined as a fractal. The study was carried out in one of the contracting companies in the industrial and construction fields, which operates as a project-oriented project in different regions of the country. The finding shows the proposed model could be used and implemented for resource management in project-oriented construction companies.
