Application of Management and Control Techniques in Brazilian Construction Industry
Journal Title: Current Trends in Civil & Structural Engineering (CTCSE) - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
The planning process is imperative for the construction industry as a management tool for building and residential construction firms. Effective planning procedures coordinate, monitor and guide processes for enhanced outcomes. Unfortunately, inadequate planning or no coherent outlining is the reality for most Brazilian companies in the construction sector, i.e. the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sector. This article aims to review a set of practical models for better planning and controlling for vertical building construction focusing on currently available software in the local market. By examining these techniques this article also intends to disseminate awareness regarding current concerns in the industry.
