Characterization of the information system integrated to the construction project management systems.

The construction industry wields significant influence in the economies of various countries. However, compared to sectors like manufacturing and aeronautics, it has lagged in terms of digitalization of processes and project management advancement. This study aims to explore how the integration of Lean principles, Building Information Modeling (BIM), and Project Lifecycle Management methodologies within an information system can enhance decision-making in construction project management as a complex environment. A comprehensive literature review was conducted to establish a conceptual framework and gather necessary information for designing an information system. The design was based on the viable systems model and the soft systems methodology, from a systemic perspective that encourages the synergistic interaction of these methodologies. The resulting abstract model would facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the interconnectedness of these methodologies, emphasizing collaborative work environments for efficient information management. This approach aims to replace the current isolated application of each of those methodologies and promises improved project management performance.
