Enhancing Construction Project Efficiency through Advanced IT Solutions

This two-year research program focuses on improving construction management through technology adoption. Encompassing nine case studies across various Queensland projects, it aims to identify cutting-edge IT solutions, enhance communication, and streamline workflows among dispersed project teams. Key features include project web portals, advanced email, rapid file transfer, shared databases, and internet-based video conferencing. The initiative seeks to ensure timely reporting, reduce dependencies on paper, and enhance overall project efficiency, benefiting stakeholders and improving design and documentation quality.
