After years of being slow to change, the construction industry has finally started to appreciate the importance of information technology as a tool in construction process re-engineering.

It describes current practices for using IT for construction, with major case studies of IT management from the UK and elsewhere worldwide, and additionally considers best-practice benchmarks. Finally, it shows how these concepts, techniques and practical ideas can be applied to move current practice forward. The book is required reading for all construction businesses as they seek to deal with the more competitive environment in which they work.
