Abstract

In recent years, increasingly more construction companies have adopted the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system in some form for increasing productivity and work efficiency. However, the current practice on construction Quality Control (QC) still centers on quality control of work items associated with construction activities. This makes it difficult to integrate or collaborate with the ERP system that centers on management of resource items of activities. To facilitate the integration of QC and ERP, this research proposes a resource-based QC model that extends the existing construction QC models from work-item based to resource-based. Also, the proposed model is an e-model that takes into account the need of computerization and digitalization for QC tasks and supports richer quantitative analysis for better construction quality assessment and QC information feedback. Because the proposed resource-based QC e-model is still being developed in an ongoing research project, the discussions in this paper focus on the analysis and design of the e-model.
