Standardization and integration of construction data
19 February 2024Requirements gathering and analysis: key players
19 February 2024Due to the ever-increasing number of systems in companies, managers responsible for various systems are moving around the departments, who, unable to keep up with the growing amount of information, ask specialists to create data in such a way that this data can be used in other systems and applications.
Engineers and specialists who create data often do not know and do not understand where the data they create will be used later.
Therefore, the main problem of the managing managers of companies working in the construction industry is to make the process transparent and understandable for all participants.
To develop precise data requirements for a construction project, it's essential to start by comprehensively understanding the processes and applications involved. Construction projects vary greatly in complexity, often encompassing dozens to thousands of applications and systems, each requiring accurate up-to-date information and continuous monitoring.
To effectively write data requirements in existing tables and databases, one must first understand the specifics of the processes and applications for which the data is being collected.
In the following example, we will look at a scenario in which technicians maintaining various systems, tables, and databases in a company are populating a project with data to fulfil a client's request to add a new window to the current project.
