With a focus on project managers (PMs) in the construction industry, this book addresses the impact of smart technology applications on project management and examines how technologically competent PMs can be developed for successfully managing and delivering projects with smart technologies.
The book assesses the changes to the knowledge and skillsets required to manage projects with smart technologies; develops a Technological Competency Framework to improve PM competency when managing projects with smart technologies; and develops a Knowledge-Based Technological Competency Analytics and Innovations System to assess and improve the technological competency of PMs and provide recommendations to improve their competency.
Managing Projects with Smart Technologies is ideal for PMs and academics in the areas of construction project management, engineering, architecture, and infrastructure and anyone involved in the technical training of professionals in these areas.
This book applies research to develop a Technological Competency Analytics and Innovations System and a Technological Competency Framework to assess and improve the technological competency of construction project managers facing rapid change in the era of the fourth industrial revolution.
