ProCure; a review of construction-related information technology

Watson, A; Underwood, J

Abstract

The recent EU-funded ProCure project was designed to encourage the usage of available information and communication technology to large-scale engineering construction. The industry and research partners to the project believed that sufficient information and communication technology was already available for use in real projects, albeit with care and an acceptable risk of failure. This paper presents part of the work undertaken within the project to collate information on commercial engineering software and its usage, the results of existing research projects and emerging technologies.
