- Abstract
- The business world in now interconnected electronically: communication is instantaneous and the need to access vital information is often immediate. In order to maintain global competitiveness and to benefit from the sweeping changes taking place in the business world, the construction industry must develop a proactive approach to these developments. Because many aspects of the design and construction process are "information-intensive," the industry must be able to implement various information mangement strategies and technologies effectively. Doing so will contribute toward two key competitiveness goals: reducing overall project costs, and reducing the time required to design and deliver construction projects.
