Research in large scale infrastructure projects have argued that the overall project performance is subject to lo ck-in, yet this is little understood empirically and more research is needed. Recently studies reported that lock -in can occur both at the decision -making level and at the project execution level respectively. The underlying patterns influencing project sc ope transformation , due to evolving expectations and/or stakeholder?s perspective and the occurrence of lock -in influence in project performance. This paper explores the relationship between project scope and lock -in within large infrastructure projects in the context of cost over -run . Based on empirical data from 20 High Speed Rail (HSR) projects in Spain with multinational sets of actors , and anchored in the Management of Project (MoP) paradigm , the paper shows that a holistic perspective is essential for successful outcome. Methodologically, the paper uses data mining and a case study approach to explore mechanisms that u nderlie lock -in in relation with scope demarcation ? tracked through contract chang e. It suggests that an investigation of lock -in in relationship to scope demarcation and thro ugh the lens of path dependence contributes to the understanding of cost over -run emergence. Preliminary findings highlight contract type and its content to have a great influence in cost over -run . | |
