Ph.d.-forsvar ved Daniel Woodier

In his PhD dissertation, Daniel Woodier examines how owner organisations of large-scale, complex infrastructure act and develop capabilities over time as central actors within construction ecosystems.

Drawing on a longitudinal in-depth case study of a public authority responsible for national railway infrastructure, the research analyses the mechanisms, processes, and limitations that shape how owner organisations influence projects, programmes, and the wider ecosystem of actors.

The dissertation contributes an ecosystem perspective on infrastructure ownership and conceptualises the management of infrastructure ecosystems as a continuous process of structuring, understanding, and adapting the ecosystem over time.
