Development of a Tool for Assessing the Degree of Automation and Integration on Capital Projects

Abstract

The goal of the Fully Integrated and Automated Project Processes (FIAPP) research thrust at the University of Texas at Austin is to improve the industry through better utilization of integration and automation technologies. This thesis describes the first step toward that goal: development of a survey with which to measure both the degree of technology use on projects and the implications of such usage on project outcomes. Also included in this report, is guidance for future researchers who wish to develop similar surveys or gather similar data.
