Integrated supply chain planning and scheduling for construction projects

The importance of Supply Chain Management in improving construction management performance has been recognized since the 1990s. However, construction projects still take a longer time to finish and overrun the allocated budget. Moreover, construction projects suffer from a lack of supply chain integration. Thus, the construction industry has a significant need for effective construction supply chain management, which increases collaboration among its participants. Therefore, in this research project, we will consider supply chain integration that deals with the concurrent problem of real-time scheduling and supply chain planning for construction projects.
The outcome is developing an integrated supply chain coordination technique for scheduling and for pre-construction planning and project execution with the continuous update from the construction site. The collaboration between different supply chain players based on real-time information from the construction is critical in achieving more precision in determining the project progress and, therefore, more efficiency in construction logistics coordinati
