Abstract
There is a dearth of research on information needs in construction, though they are the basis for developing information systems. This study aims to develop a methodology for analyzing information needs in construction. The proposed methodology consists of three steps: 1) firstly, activity theory is employed to help define the context in which information needs arise; 2) secondly, interview is employed to identify information needs in each activity; and 3) finally, the identified information needs are analyzed and structured. A case study was conducted to illustrate the application of this methodology. The proposed methodology provides a practical approach for information system developers to identify and analyze information needs in construction.
