Construction Resource Management: Improving Contractor Business Performance
Category: IT Management, Enterprise Applications
Overview In light of the increasingly challenging business environment, construction companies are taking a closer look at their operations, searching for untapped profit-boosting opportunities and new sources of competitive differentiation. Through this analysis, many executives are discovering that their process for managing tools, equipment, materials and consumables - a process often referred to as "Construction Resource Management" - is broken. The traditional paper-and-spreadsheet-based approach is no longer effective at preventing theft, loss and employee hoarding of these critical business resources. Even more troubling is the realization that the mismanagement of tools, equipment and materials runs much deeper than the direct costs of replacing these resources.
