Summary: | The efficiency improvement of construction projects depends on the effective communication among the project participants. However, the problem of communication occurs due to high amount and variety of information during the construction process. Thus, this study aims at applying Microsoft Office Groove as a method for reducing construction lead time and facilitating document management at the construction site. Lead times of the new method were compared with those of the conventional method of documentation in construction. Reduction in delivery time and lead time of the documentation process and improvement in communication between constructions participants are observed as the results of implementing the proposed method. |
