Discussing The Need For Better Construction Project Information Management Among Project Owners

As the Owner of a construction project, you are responsible for paying the bills and taking on the risk associated with the projects you commission. So why does it seem like you have the least amount of visibility and control of the content and services you’ve paid for?

At each phase of a construction project’s lifecycle, your project team is producing volumes of content and with regulations such as ISO 19650, it’s your responsibility to have control of that content and how it comes together.

On this episode of the ProjectReady podcast, we’ll navigate the different challenges that owners face in handling project information and discuss different strategies and approaches that can be taken to solve them and get the visibility and control they need on their projects with today’s technology.

Digital consulting lead and thought leader Jeff Walter and vice president of innovation at OAC Services Salla Eckhardt, join ProjectReady CEO Joe Giegerich and head of development Shaili Modi Oza for this high-level discussion. Listen now to better understand the need for better construction project information management among project owners throughout the AECO industry.

What you’ll learn from this podcast:

• The need for Owners in the AEC industry to more actively participate in data strategies and plans to protect their interests.

• The importance of data ownership and transparency, especially in cases where there are multiple financial stakeholders involved. This includes the need to manage and track data authorship, data management, and data ownership to ensure trust and accountability.

• The challenges of data governance, including the absence of a standardized approach, issues with data quality and format, and the need for clear data standards and regulations to prevent data mismanagement and ensure data is used effectively.

• The challenge and importance of adopting international and national data standards (i.e. – ISO 19650) to facilitate flexibility for end-users and avoid being locked into legacy systems.

• The need for integration, clarity, and standardization to improve efficiency and accountability.

• Strategies to solve these Owner challenges including Centralization of Data, Interoperability, Data Governance, and use of an Integrated Data Environment.
