Abstract
Power plant construction project is large-scale and complex involving many stakeholders. To ensure "quality, schedule, cost" of this huge project, Hitachi has applied IT and system to construction area. Its focal point is (1) realization of huge project consistent and coordinated control, and (2) realization of improving construction field efficiency and quality, for reducing risk and cost. From 1990's, it was applied to actual projects and achieved an effect, but further improvement was reaching a limit in management and system centered approach. Hence, by reconsidering the basis "Construction is a Production by Human", Hitachi has conducted researching construction management system based on Human Centered Approach by focusing user/human side, and has conducted reflecting the results to projects management itself.
