Project delivery model impacts the results of the projects regardless the type. This paper discusses about the elements of a project delivery models used in Queensferry Crossing project and how such elements impacted the project in the planning, design, and construction phases in terms cost, quality, and time. This project is considered as one of the successful projects as the project was delivered on time, under the estimated budget with high quality of performance. This paper has investigated and documented the main reasons why the project was a successful in terms of cost, quality, and time. For gathering data, several ways have been followed such as literature study, document study interviews with two highly involved person from the project, workshops with the project team and the Queensferry Crossing site visit. This paper discusses four project delivery model elements to investigate the case project. Organization form has been studied to know the organization of the project was structured, Project structure has been studied to know how the project has been planned from the initiation to the completion and the Procurement been studied to learn more about the procurement process throughout the planning, design, and construction period. Lastly, the Agreement format of the project that has also been studied to know how different contracts has been used in the project. This paper also discusses lessons learned from the project. This study calls for future research on project delivery models and generate a big question whether the project delivery models should be situational or fixed for all projects which means once a project leads to success should the organization continue that model to the other projects too or not.
