Summary on Grant Application Form
This programme of work builds on work done on an earlier grant to develop a high level process map for design and construction. The programme will take the eight sub levels of the process (Development Management, Project Management, Design Management, Resource Management, Production Management, Health Safety Legal and Statutory management, Facilities Management and Process Management) and develop sub-process maps with multi-media support.These maps will result from a programme of research which will include identification of trends in new product development process management in manufacturing industry, workshops, scenario building and process mapping with the industry collaborators. The resulting processes will be implemented on a construction project. In addition research will be undertaken to identify trends in IT tools to support improved process in construction, resulting in supporting guidelines to the process maps.
