Linking the Operational, Tactical and Strategic Levels by Means of CPM: An Example in the Construction Industry

  • Chapter
Book cover Business Intelligence and Performance Management

Part of the book series: Advanced Information and Knowledge Processing ((AI&KP))

Abstract

During the last decade, much progress has been made in the field of CPM. However, there are still some issues to master. Many companies have implemented only isolated CPM bricks, and controlling systems which supply real-time information are still missing. To exploit the whole potential of CPM, it is necessary to integrate the CPM components and to link the operational, tactical and strategic levels. In this chapter, an integration grid is used to address all interconnections between the different components systematically and to fill the gaps between the operational, tactical and strategic levels. The grid is applied to a new generation of CPM systems for the construction industry. The CPM approach presented is based on data of a satellite-supported, machine control & guidance system. This data is combined with data from other sources to enable intelligent analyses. Benefits and open issues are discussed. Finally, possibilities for further developments of the presented approach are mentioned.
