Abstract The construction failures can be decreased by continuously improving the construction process based upon the information of construction failures. Herein, the information of construction failures can be utilized as the key factor for identifying the ineffective process and providing the improved construction process that can prevent failures. The objective of this research is to suggest a model for improving construction process continuously by using the information of construction failures. An extended review and analysis of literatures related to the construction failure are performed to investigate the definition, type, cause, and lesson learned of failure. This research also identifies that process modeling methodology and case-based reasoning are applicable to the construction process improvement, and then it suggests a framework of CIMCP(continuous improvement model of construction process) based on the module of case-based reasoning such as case retrieval, case index, and case adaptation.
