Software Function Survey Report for the Project Management of a Plant Construction

Kon, Tetsuro

The project management technology aided the personal computer was surveyed to find a useful and convenient software for the large scale of plant construction. Survey results shows that we can easily build the project management system by the utilization of the latest personal computer and also software, along with the progress of downsizing. The software function of MS Project Standard 2002 and also Artemis Schedule Publisher 6.0 were evaluated by the test input of small sample data. MS Project 2002 is superior to Artemis Schedule Publisher 6.0 in GUI operational flexibility, cost performance, also has team collaboration ability. Tokai incinerator constructionmanagement data which was collected ten years ago was used to check the functions of MS Project 2002. This test show MS Project 2002 has sufficient functions for the large scale of plant construction management. The workgroup management model which contains MS Project Server 2003 and MS Project Standard 2003 is recommended to build new project management system for the large scale of plant construction in Tokai site. Future study items were also summarized.
