Authors:       Thu Anh Nguyen, Phong Thanh Nguyen
Abstract:     Project success is a foundation to manage and control the current project, plan, and orient the future project. However, project success is a difficult concept because of the project’s complexity and dynamic. So it is a challenged decision-making process for any organization to evaluate project success in real practice. This paper provided an innovative, practical list of criteria for project evaluation. It was developed from three sources, which were the literature review (theory), previous documents of completed projects (industrial sources), and experts and respondents (academic and human opinions). Moreover, this research introduces a multi-criteria decision analysis solution for evaluating construction project success by using TOPSIS (The Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) technique. This method is found to be useful when dealing with plenty of assessment criteria and projects.
