The aim of this paper is to present the key elements of the information management process in the construction industry. Construction projects typically require substantial effort, time, and capital outlay. Information management provides the means for improved project management, coordination of individual efforts, time and cost reduction. The paper describes the development stages and the organisational structure of a construction project, the information needs at each stage and the ways in which information is collected, recorded, reported, and used for project control purposes. In addition, the use of computers for information management and communication is discussed.
