Maturity Assessment of Intelligent Construction Management

Abstract

In the new era of Construction 4.0, the application of a large number of intelligent information technologies (ITs) and advanced managerial approaches have brought about the rapid development of intelligent construction management (ICM). However, it is still unclear how to assess the maturity of ICM. In this study, a maturity assessment system for ICM was formulated through literature reviews, questionnaires, expert discussions and a case study. A maturity scoring table containing five assessment dimensions and twenty assessment indicators was developed, and corresponding maturity levels and a radar chart of dimensions were designed. A case study of the assessments of two construction enterprises was conducted to validate that the proposed assessment system could be used by construction enterprises to quantitatively assess their ICM maturities and obtain both overall and specific assessment results. This study also proposed practical improvement methods to improve ICM maturities for construction enterprises with different maturity levels. Furthermore, the study also discussed the development direction of ICM at present and in the short-term future, which should be paid more attention to by the construction industry.

Analyzing Critical Influencing Factors of the Maturity of Smart Construction Site Applications

“…Yusof et al (2018) conducted a systematic literature review that analyzed the literature related to BIM maturity and proposed a maturity analysis framework encompassing information, personnel, policies, processes, technology, organizations, and deliverables [34]. Lin et al (2022) systematically reviewed existing intelligent construction management (ICM) research and proposed a maturity model evaluation framework that included five dimensions: data management, personnel and culture, policies and regulations, technology and tools, and processes and methods [35].…”

Indústria 4.0 na indústria da construção

“…Os modelos apresentados por Das et al (2022) e Das et al (2023) apresentam modelos conceituais de maturidade, aplicando a digitalização diretamente ao que considera áreas chave de processo, em oposição a dimensões gerais de operação, como apresentado neste artigo. Lin et al (2022) discute sobre 4 níveis de maturidade, e formas de avaliar empresas do setor da construção em relação a gerenciamento inteligente da construção, porém não é apresentado um modelo que relacione esses níveis a tecnologias possíveis de serem utilizadas. O Quadro 1 apresenta a síntese dos principais resultados da RSL.…”

“…Na última dimensão apresentada, o custo desempenha um papel importante em vários projetos da construção (LIN et al, 2022). O problema relacionado a custos é frequentemente encontrado na literatura como um dos problemas crônicos da construção (ROSENFELD, 2014).…”

“…Sezer, Thunberg e Wernicke (2021) propõem um modelo para avaliar o grau de digitalização. Lin et al (2022) discutem sobre 4 níveis de maturidade para gerenciamento inteligente da construção. No entanto, nenhum modelo apresentado na literatura relaciona as tecnologias da Indústria 4.0 para a construção ao longo dos níveis de maturidade considerando dimensões de excelência operacional.…”

Data-Driven Quantitative Performance Evaluation of Construction Supervisors

“…This technique greatly improves the safety performance of the project, and this process is dynamic and continuous [55]. The new, intelligent system undertakes and upgrades intelligent equipment to be more efficient, uses data information accurately, and completely changes the method of operation in construction [57]. The current supervision mode tends to form a systematic, digital and intelligent management system, and finally achieves the goal of high standards, requirements, and quality of engineering construction projects [58,59].…”
