| Abstract | Computerized information system has been introduced into the construction project
development process in order to encourage the convenience of users for automating and
handling with amount of information. To develop a construction project, it composes of
many processes and many executers to participate in each process. Each member is
responsible for certain aspects of the construction project development processes and uses
his/her own unique processes to undertake his/her tasks. They have to rely on information
supplied by the others. However, many organizations cannot achieve advantages which are
offered by the computerized information system because the format of received
information is improper for automating information. The method of storing information is
not determined which effects on the difficulty to find and retrieve the stored information.
Therefore, this study's objective is to develop the assessment framework of computerized
information system and apply it in the existing system to find and analyze the deficiency of
computerized information system within organizations. This paper presents the
assessments in two public organizations by using the checklist as an assessment tool. The
results of findings found that the computers are employed to the organizations, but amount
of them are insufficient and information is not stored in computer technology properly.
Besides, the electronic file is not shared among divisions, thus the receivers have to input it
in their computer in order to automate with their information. To overcome these
problems, the recommendations were proposed for increasing more effectiveness of
computerized information system. |
