Developing Management Information System for Construction Equipment Maintenance

Sudden breakdown of equipment is one of the main factors impacting the delay of the infrastructure project. The key cause for the rapid breakdown of construction equipment is improper equipment maintenance. This essay aims at delivering a solution to monitor the regular maintenance of equipment and its replacement parts, by introducing a management information system. The data on maintenance schedule for different locally utilized equipment is acquired from dealers and construction equipment showroom. The data collection process is interrupted by the employment of a graphical user interface to frame the software architectural design. The proposed software architecture has the potential to be developed into an application in the future, allowing for the efficient maintenance of construction equipment as well as the mitigation of construction delays caused by an equipment failure on the construction site.
