Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze the reasons of construction project delays in Khartoum State, Sudan, as well as the negative consequences of these delays and how to mitigate them. A questionnaire with 96 companies active in the construction industry was created for this objective the SPSS application was used to examine the data. The analysis concluded that the most significant causes of delay were contractors' financial difficulties, suppliers' or subcontractors' late payments, poor site management and supervision. The most serious consequences of the delay were time and expense overruns. Competent project managers, awarding bids to the right/experienced consultant and contractor, and proper project planning and scheduling were found to be the most effective methods for reducing construction delays. The paper offered multiple recommendations and solutions that serve as a guide for the project's various partners in order to ensure successful project management
