Information Technology in Materials Management
Abstract
Ensuring proper supply and timely delivery of materials during every stage of construction is crucial for overall project success. The task of managing materials is difficult and requires considerable effort on the part of engineers, project planners, supervisors, logistics teams, and storekeepers. This chapter explains the problems associated with materials management and how information technology can help in solving those issues. The authors discuss the use of RFID and the role that this technology can play in tracking shuttering components, such as Mivan, and many similar high-value raw materials and even smaller items. They also discuss how bar and QR codes can help in materials management.
