Public Procurement and Policy BIM and Construction Integration E-commerce and Technology Innovations

Abstract

Based on the success achieved in other industries, there is the potential for the Architectural, Engineering, and Construction industry to achieve significant improvements in efficiency through the adoption of e-business methods and solutions. There are a variety of issues that must be considered in steering the industry toward these improvements. The issues stem from the root characteristics of the industry including: fragmentation, highly pragmatic, cost conscious, little institutional leadership, and no standards in technology and business models. This paper examines e-procurement as a subset of e-business in an effort to identify the issues surrounding the development of a critical mass of participants required to overcome the organizational and technology challenges. The issues are discussed in some detail followed by the presentation of some preliminary results from a survey which quantifies the current status of the industry in an attempt to support a strategy for progress.
