Expressway Project, Maintenance Cost, Material Procurement, Construction ImplementationAbstract
With the vigorous advancement of expressway construction, China now boasts extensive highway coverage nationwide. However, most expressways have entered maintenance phases, making it imperative to balance high-quality transportation services with effective cost control in highway maintenance. This study focuses on the an Expressway Project, analyzing current maintenance cost control practices and identifying existing challenges. Through systematic evaluation of maintenance design, material procurement, construction implementation, and inventory management processes, we propose optimized cost control strategies. The research provides methodological guidance and theoretical support for cost management in A Expressway projects, enhancing their competitive edge and sustainable development. Additionally, the analytical framework developed for A Expressway maintenance cost control is expected to offer valuable insights for other expressway maintenance cost control models.
