Which preposition is correct (face of / by)?

I would like to seek someone help to solve the below.

  1. In addition to the challenge faced of this project, there was a very limited time for us to carry out the installation and commissioning work.
  2. In addition to the challenge faced by this project, there was a very limited time for us to carry out the installation and commissioning work.

Which preposition followed the face is correct in the above two sentences?

Only "faced by" is possible, but the sentence as a whole doesn't read tremendously well to me. The limited time sounds like one of the challenges, not something in addition to a challenge.
