O ’ Brien Construction Supply - Chain Management : A Vision for Advanced Coordination , Costing , and Control

چکیده
Construction supply-chain management offers new approaches to reduce the cost of and increase the reliability and speed of facility construction. Supply-chain management takes a systems view of the production activities of autonomous production units (subcontractors and suppliers in construction) and seeks global optimization of these activities. Applications of supply-chain management techniques in manufacturing environments have saved hundreds of millions of dollars while improving customer service (Arntzen, et. al, 1995). As subcontractor and supplier production comprise the largest value of project cost, supply-chain approaches may have similar benefits. Limited studies in construction suggest that poor supply-chain design regularly increases project cost by ten percent (Bertelsen, 1993), and this estimate is probably conservative. Project duration may be similarly affected.
