Perceptions Affecting ICT Adoption for Building Project Management in the Indian Construction Industry
Building project management requires effective communication between all project team members and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) constitute the majority of businesses in the building construction sector. A study was recently conducted with respect to SMEs to research their perceived barriers, associated enablers and benefits of effective adoption of information and communication technologies (ICT), in order to improve the management of building projects. A questionnaire survey was carried out in India to assess the importance of each identified perception. Data analysis shows that the industry and organization level barriers and associated enablers are perceived to be very important. Thus, the study identifies strategic actions to be taken by the managers at the industry and organization levels for increasing effective adoption of ICT for building project management. Analysis results have also been utilized for scenario building for ICT adoption within the building industry.
