Abstract:

With the decline of construction investment, client’s demand for “Quality” “Cost Down” and “Shorter Construction Period” becomes more intense. And some surveys show that most dissatisfied contractor’s service for client goes to cost related matter including cost management and unclear decision making process. This report tries to demonstrate how one of the most advanced information technologies, “3D Modeling” can help to clarify cost management and decision making process. Also it helps to share the project related information among project members including the client and it eventually leads to more effective cost management.
