Site documentation and as-built records of public sector construction project

University of British Columbia

This paper is a continuation of work to develop and test a prototype computerbased system to address the needs of a public owner - The British Columbia Ministry of Transportation and Highways. The Ministry continues to be interested in how they can exploit information technologies and the prototype system discussed here proceeds to address their concerns. After the research completed by Ralph English in the Spring of 1995 was concluded several outstanding issues remained. These included reporting features for certain routines, development of a quality management routine, a site trial, and modifications to current practices, such as improved record associations with pay items and activities. This prototype was built on top of a project management system called REPCON which has been developed over many years at the University of British Columbia. Implicit in this project is the ability to represent any project with multiple views. Depending on the required view, the system must be able to respond to the user to provide the appropriate data for a complete picture of the project. The objectives for this thesis include: modifications to the Pay Item and Activity routines; thorough report generation in the Daily Site routine; select-sort and reporting in the Records routine; a description of future work required to generate a Quality Management view of a project; and, an outline concerning a Change Order Management routine.
