Construction Decision Support System for Delay Analysis

Abstract

The Construction Decision Support System for Delay Analysis [delay analysis system (DAS)] for personal computers is a software program that adds the capability for determining possible causes for project delays and suggests alternative courses of action to prevent further delays. The DAS is not merely another scheduling software system; it is a program that is used with existing project‐management software packages. Development of the DAS program could lead to the evolution of one “metaprogram” to address management issues. The expanded delay analysis system creates a logical‐path form of managing human and material resources in construction, built upon the solid data (foundation) of actual industrial experience and need. This paper discusses industrial participation in the development of the delay analysis system program and describes the purpose and development of the program, its technical parameters, usage, and program output. A sample case study is presented that demonstrates how the program is utilized and the type of output it provides.
