  • Abstract:
    Diverse construction project stakeholders demand "fully-informed" and well-balanced decisions that target multiple objectives appropriately. This paper introduces initiatives into the development of a cluster of information and communication technology-artificial intelligence supported empowerment systems and sub-systems. Examples presented include conceptual models and/or descriptions of: the framework of an over-arching management support system (MSS); multi-agent support for improved collaborative working in: design development and relationally integrated supply chain management; and web-based quality management.
