A computer-based renewable resource management system for a construction company

Abstract The basic operation of a construction company involves the execution of tasks (building structures or building works) on sites. These projects are linked by the common resources of a building company used for the execution of different orders. The scheduling of a construction company programme is a continuous process with a dynamically changing look-ahead and scope of works. Decisions made on site by junior managers are based on their experience and intuition and are attempts at purposeful regulation – adaptation of the operative plan to the directive schedule, agreed with the investor, considering the progress of work. The quality of management decisions can be improved by implementing computer-based decision-supporting systems.
