Green Business Parks(GBPs)as a way of achieving more sustainable industrial and business development are getting increasing interest from both public and private sectors.However,there have been few studies identifying the project management strategies for such projects.In light of this,the objectives of this study are to:(1)identify the critical success factors(CSFs)for GBPs;(2)investigate and assess the barriers hindering the adoption of GBPs; and(3)propose feasible solutions to overcome the barriers.To achieve the objectives,30 CSFs,15 barriers and 21 solutions were identified from a comprehensive literature review and then a questionnaire survey and postsurvey interviews were conducted.The analysis results first reported that the top three CFSs were “strong top management support,“strong financial capability and “adequacy of design details and specifications,while “perceived higher initial capital cost,“uncertain trade-off between environmental and financial benefits and “lack of government supports were revealed as the top three barriers.The analysis also indicated that “better government funding and “clients advocation of green management goals were most feasible solutions to improve the potential adoption of GBPs.This study not only fills the gap in the knowledge area of the project management of GBPs but also points out the right directions for the practitioners to successfully adopt GBPs and ultimately achieve more sustainable developments.
