Knowledge Management in the Designer/Constructor Interface
In construction projects there are a number of information exchange and sharing interfaces between the designers and the contractors. This paper explores the evolution of these interfaces during a project and identifies the critical success factors for knowledge management in this domain. The specific phase of tender stage briefing is examined as it lays the foundation for efficient exchange of information throughout the project. Furthermore, the paper also examines the activities and flow of information throughout the entire project for one key aspect, namely, geotechnical and site investigation information. A formal activity model in IDEFO and an information model in EXPRESS are presented for the domain of geotechnical information. These indicate the role of formal modelling of the knowledge/information flow in a project. This paper describes work that forms part of a project entitled Knowledge Learning In CONstruction (KLICON).
