Here’s a recap of the Construction Digitalization Strategy webinar shared at BuildTech Asia 2021.
The construction sector has seen COVID-19 exacerbating the need to work remotely. Enterprises want to be more resource-efficient, sustainable, and productive in the long run.
The Project Management solution under the Construction Digitalization Strategy is an integrated platform for all departments to connect, and collaborate. This ensures a single and consistent data source. It also helps to maintain the data quality, as the system ensures there are no double entries or multiple databases that require unnecessary manpower. Enterprises can use this platform to collaborate with internal and external stakeholders, and improve existing business practices by removing redundant steps in daily business operations.
While there are many modules that can be customized according to the organization’s needs, let’s first take a look at the Contract Management module. It is further divided into main contract management and subcontract management modules.
- For main contract management, its aim is to help manage the whole contract life cycle. From auto-generation of contract administration to controlling and generating standard templates so that data sent to clients and contractors are aligned. It can also be integrated with electronic signatures and approvals, to eliminate human error and inconsistencies.
- For subcontract management, the focus is on digitalizing the subcontracting process. This starts from receiving quotes submitted by external subcontractors, to awarding contracts and payments for claims. It makes the slow and complicated subcontracting process and tracking of payments more efficient.
Another key module that onsite teams use is the asset management module. It helps to monitor and manage their assets, keep tabs on risk exposure, and control costs.
