The use of computing technology in highway construction as a total jobsite management tool
چکیده انگلیسی

The integration of Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and Information and Communications Technology (ICT) through the creation of a Total Jobsite Management Tool (TJMT) can revolutionize the way contractors do business. The key to this integration is the collection and processing of real-time GPS data that is produced on the jobsite for use in project management applications. This paper establishes the state-of-practice of GPS data collection and utilization by heavy construction contractor companies in the United States and presents an implementation framework to assist construction contractor companies in navigating the terrain of GPS and ICT use. The proposed framework, at a macro level, outlines the required ICT infrastructure, addresses the organizational restructuring requirements, presents the related benefits and costs, and provides guidelines for successful implementation.
