Agility is a concept that provides new opportunities for proper management of construction projects. Since little is known about role of communication in agile project management, focusing specifically on the concept of communication to improve agile project practices would be beneficial. Communication plays a central role in project team development and increasing relationship quality with stakeholders. This study aims to evaluate factors measuring agile communication addressed in existing literature using a questionnaire survey. To achieve the study objective, data were collected from civil engineers working in various construction projects. Then, relative importance index (RII) was used to analyze data gathered from the respondents. The findings indicate that the significant role of face-to-face communication to convey information and continuous interaction of the client in the project execution process were the most important indicators of agile project communication, respectively. The study findings are expected to aid improving the agile communication practices, and eventually contributing to the adoption of agile solutions for professionals in the construction industry.
