Abstract
Proper cost control and management is pivotal for the success of construction projects and companies alike. However, several of the systems in usage are fragmented, especially in regards to how cost data at the project, department and company levels are portrayed. This is particularly observed when companies carry a sizeable portfolio of projects in diverse and sometimes remote locations. This calls for establishing an integrated cost control and management system capable of addressing these deficiencies while portraying the cost status at various levels of the company’s chain of command. Paper introduces an information system (IS) developed for such purpose and which pools multiple actors in the company’s hierarchy. It has the potential to streamline the dataflow between the different departments and throughout the company’s chain of command. System’s functionality is based on the Object-Oriented (O-O) approach and the Unified Modelling Language (UML) known in System Analysis and Design (SAD) of computer-based IS.
