Abstract

This study proposes a Reinforcement Learning (RL)-based model for project delay management by dynamically detecting deviations from expected progress, estimated through a learning curve model. The model identifies potential delays in real time and allocates additional resources to critical tasks when necessary to accelerate project completion. With RL’s adaptive decision-making capabilities, the proposed approach ensures timely project delivery while effectively managing resource availability and the time-cost trade-off.
