Abstract

Tracking ICT applications on construction business processes is critical to the success of ICT-applied construction projects. Existing IDEF0 is a representative modeling method for visualizing and analyzing business processes. It defines a construction production process into a visual information model, hence, encouraging the project participant to understand the activities, their deliverable, and control flow of the process. However, IDEF0 dose not lend itself to ICT-applied construction processes, because it does not provide a mean to define how, in what order, by which each and every activity that ICT applied implements. This paper presents a new business modeling method that improves the traceability of ICT application (IAMB: ICT Application tracking Model for Business process) for construction management. The IAMB contributes to handle the sophisticated features of construction management processes to which ICT are applied. The method categorizes the process into three types: management, construction, and information exchange. The validity of IAMB was confirmed by analyzing the performance when it is used for tracking each modeling step of lift reservation process which making use of ICT. The test case provides an admissible evidence that the method encourage to define who, what, how, which order, and by which ICT tools the construction process exchanges production information.

ICT를 적용한 건설 프로젝트의 성공적 수행을 위해서는 건설 생산 프로세스를 시각정보모델로 정의하여 프로젝트 참여자들이 해당 프로세스 상에서 ICT가 담당(혹은 실행)하는 작업의 내용 및 절차를 이해할 수 있어야한다. 기존 IDEF0은 비즈니스 프로세스, 정보 시스템 등을 시각화 및 분석하는 대표적 모델링 방법이다. 반면, 조직(혹은 기업)이 수행하는 작업들에 대해서만 표현할 뿐 프로세스 상의 ICT가 적용되는 작업들 간의 순서, 정보전달 및 실행 방법에 대한 구체적 설계기법을 제공하지 않는다. 본 연구는 ICT 적용 추적가능성을 향상시킨 업무 모델링(IAMB) 기법을 개발하여, 업무프로세스에 적용되는 ICT의 특징을 명확하게 인식 및 정의할 수 있는 체제를 제공한다. IAMB 모델은 관리, 시공, 정보 등 3개 부분으로 구분되며, 육하원칙에 의거 누가, 언제, 어떤 ICT기법을 적용하여, 어떤 순서로 프로세스 정보를 처리하는지 규명하게 한다.
