Abstract |
Recently, information technology(IT) and information system(IS) have spread rapidly in many industries. Information system is not a assistant factor but the one of the critical success factors (CSF) to conduct the business. Like other industries, IT and IS contribute service quality and productivity in the construction industry. However, there have been??few research projects on the assessment of the construction industry's informatization. But even these projects do not deal with end users' viewpoints but with only IT experts' viewpoints. This study determines informatization sentiment index that can evaluate informatization of construction fields based on end user's viewpoints. The result of this paper is expected to be used as a basic data for promoting an informatization strategy of a construction company in the future with considering end users' requirements. This paper provides frequency analysis of the present condition on the informatization of the construction industry and the informatization sentiment index based on end users' viewpoints. The analysis results show several weak points of construction informatization particularly at construction sites. |
