Modelling the knowledge management processes for planning and scheduling of construction projects based on state-of-the-art technology
Construction management is an information intensive industry. In construction projects, knowledge is usually buried in unread reports and arcane filing systems, or lost because people move on, leads to wasted activity of reinventing the wheel and impaired project performance. The application o...

| description |
Construction management is an information intensive industry. In construction
projects, knowledge is usually buried in unread reports and arcane filing systems, or
lost because people move on, leads to wasted activity of reinventing the wheel and
impaired project performance. The application of Knowledge Management (KM) has
been identified to be lagging in the area of construction project. Previous
developments for KM in the construction industry are focused on traditional project
management philosophy of focusing on tasks. Based on high focused research on
construction management by Lean practitioners and researchers it is evident that
breakthrough improvements in construction can be achieved by focusing on flows.
This study focuses on modelling the technology enabled KM process using a re�engineered Last Planner System (LPS) that focuses on flows and Integrated
Production Scheduler (IPS) process. Taking an action research approach, a case
study was documented to map out the information flow and the KM mechanism. The
KM process was modelled based on systematic cyclical observation and analysis. A
questionnaire survey was carried out to understand the current practice of
information flow management and identify the KM mechanism as well. The result
revealed that currently, the construction practitioners applied the traditional approach
of project management practice and there are inefficiencies of the current practice.
Questionnaire result also had identified KM mechanism that currently being
practiced in Planning and Scheduling (P&S) activities. Hence, a proposed system
was developed to enhance the current construction management process that
performs the role of KM mechanism. At the end of this study, a working model for
KM in P&S was developed. The initial feedback of system evaluation on
functionality, applicability and effectiveness was gained and will be used in future
research work. |
