Abstract

The Capital Management Branch (CMB) of The Department of Human Services of Victoria, Australia, is investigating the use of Web Based Project Administration (WBPA) for their construction projects. This project has defined a set of guidelines on how WBPA can be best utilized by CMB while concentrating on stakeholder communication. In addition to the guidelines, this project also presents a model WBPA system for CMB. The project goals were accomplished through interviews of previous users of WBPA, non-users of WBPA and WBPA consultants. In addition, software reviews of twelve project management Application Service Providers were conducted in order to help find a match suitable for CMB’s needs.
