ABSTRACT

This book presents a better way to manage construction projects: the location-based management system for construction. This new system is designed to reduce risk, reduce production cost, increase site harmony, improve subcontractor performance, reduce material waste, improve the quality of construction and deliver more certain outcomes. The location-based management system for construction is a comprehensive new production control system for construction, with an emphasis on the planning, scheduling and control of projects and including-in its implementation-time, cost and quality. Essentially, it is an integrated system designed to improve the profitability for all participants from clients to subcontractors. The system does, however, require a new way of thinking.
