“…According to Goh (2006), ERP systems are at the heart of a company's business functions, and thus, understanding them is critical. ERPs can serve in three main capacities within an organization: operational, tactical, and strategic.…”

“…KM is a useful technique to manage this kind of important resource. For one thing, KM improves technological capability through knowledge innovation and then enhances the core competence of construction organizations (Goh 2006). For another, a range of KM issues such as organizing collaboration cross professions and building informal networks with partners and subcontractors influence the implementation of construction solutions in the context of specific markets (Grubbauer 2015).…”

Knowledge management (KM) is important to the knowledge-intensive construction industry. The diversified and changing nature of works in this field warrants us to stocktake, identify changes, and map out KM research framework for future exploration. The study involves three aspects. First, three stages of KM research in construction were distinguished in terms of the time distribution of 217 target publications. Major topics in the stages were extracted for understanding the changes of research emphasis from evolutionary perspective. Second, the past works were summed up in a three-dimensional research framework in terms of management organization, managerial methodology and approach, and managerial objective. Finally, potential research orientations in the future were predicted to expand the existing research framework. It was found that (1) KM research has significantly blossomed in the last two decades with a great potential; (2) major topics of KM were changing in terms of technology, technique, organization, attribute of knowledge, and research objectives; (3) past KM studies centred around management organization, managerial methodology and approach, and managerial objective, thus a threedimensional research framework was proposed; (4) within the research framework, team-level, project-level, and firm-level KM were studied to achieve project, organizational, and competitive objectives by integrated methodologies of information technology, social technique, and KM process tool; and (5) nine potential research orientations were predicted corresponding to the three dimensions. Finally, an expanded J Knowl Econ research framework was proposed to encourage and guide future research works in this field. The paper only focused on the construction industry. The findings need further exploration in order to discover any possible missing important research works which were not published in English or not included in the time period. The paper formed a systematic framework of KM research in construction and predicted the potential research orientations. It provides much value for the researchers who want to understand the past and the future of global KM research in the construction industry.

“…Deste modo, as informações podem ser compartilhadas e a comunicação eficiente pode ser alcançada entre as funções de gestão. Para Goh (2006), os sistemas ERP estão no cerne das funções de negócio da empresa e, portanto, sua compreensão é fundamental. Eles podem servir três principais objetivos dentro da organização: operacional, tático e estratégico.…”

The adoption of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) by companies has introduced the need of evaluating Avaliação da importância relativa dos critérios para a seleção de Sistemas Integrados de Gestão (ERP) para uso em empresas da construção civil IntroduçãoA tendência, principalmente das grandes organizações, em utilizar aplicativos ou sistemas integrados é reportada em Laudon e Laudon (2007), que destaca que estes sistemas abrangem diversas áreas funcionais, executando processos de negócios que transpassam toda a organização. A característica dos sistemas integrados de gestão é também destacada por Stair (1998), que afirma que, apesar de os sistemas de informação terem surgido sem a preocupação com integração de dados, evoluíram e resultaram na incorporação da integração de dados como parte das estratégias organizacionais.Neste âmbito, há uma tendência de as empresas utilizarem sistemas ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), surgindo a necessidade de seleção e aquisição de alternativas entre as existentes no mercado. Geralmente, para se fazer esta seleção, são levados em consideração diferentes tipos de critérios, sendo alguns deles subjetivos.Esta situação ocorre em diferentes setores de produção, sendo agravada no caso da indústria da Construção Civil pela complexidade de interligação de projetos neste setor. Segundo Marcondes (2007), a indústria da Construção Civil, se comparada às demais
