Abstract
Abstract: This research presents an analysis of the paradigm that involves the collaborative management in technological environments of architectural and urban planning companies, in the Brazilian scenario. It associates Administration, Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC), and Behavioural Analysis perspectives. It is based on a review about the influencing factors inserted in BIM domain as learning process boosters, associating concepts of collaborative networks, project management, dynamic capabilities and meta-contingencies to discuss a class of problems arising from the lack of knowledge absorption, which was systematized in the study of management bottlenecks. The methodological approach, based on Design Science Research, synthesizes procedures compatible with the general typology of an artefact –a support tool – associated to a functional analysis. The obtained results highlight seven variables that represent categories of analysis of the collaborative environment: activities, self-assessment, BIM, decision-making, information, resources, and values. The main contribution of this research was to develop a methodological way to complement a partial diagnosis of project process management. It is the first step to develop an analysis structure that represents the dynamics of a collaborative network and not just isolated variables.
Highlights
In Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sector, collaboration and collaborative work supported by computers are central themes in the discussion about the management of project companies, whose productive cycle requires extensive reformulation in the national (Brazilian) scenario
In the national scenario, project companies show a slow and fragmented process of adoption of technologies (Manzione, 2013). It reflects a gap in learning processes – triggering elements of technological and collaborative environments that arise and grow over time, but are reinforced by awareness of interactions between individuals or network “nodes” (Cândido & Abreu, 2000; Blumenschein, 2004)
The main objective of this research is to identify variables that are compatible with the class of problems systematized by the study of management bottlenecks - variables that contribute to the development of a future analysis framework compatible with collaborative technology management in project companies, in the perspective of Administration, AEC and Behaviour Analysis
Summary
In Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sector, collaboration and collaborative work supported by computers are central themes in the discussion about the management of project companies, whose productive cycle requires extensive reformulation in the national (Brazilian) scenario. Five other books have been added to the list: Development of IFCs for the Structural Domain, Strategic Work Plan (Applied Technology Council, Charles Pankow Foundation, and technical team, 2008); AIA Integrated Project Delivery (the American Institute of Architects - AIA, 2007); The Guia AsBEA boas práticas em BIM [AsBEA good practices in BIM] (GTBIM, 2015); Indiana University's BIM Proficiency Guide (Indiana University, 2015); and Manual BIM de Santa Catarina (Santa Catarina's Government, Secretariat of Planning, GTBIM and colaborators, 2014) In this context, the main objective of this research is to identify variables that are compatible with the class of problems systematized by the study of management bottlenecks - variables that contribute to the development of a future analysis framework compatible with collaborative technology management in project companies, in the perspective of Administration, AEC and Behaviour Analysis. The main contributions of the research are reported, exposing their limitations and final considerations
