Talking about the information management of engineering projects?

Project management is a complex system engineering, involving many aspects such as schedule, quality, contract, measurement, finance, materials, risks, drawings and documents. Project management is very challenging. Engineering project management needs to be fully analyzed in advance on the basis of past experience, and the actual situation of the project needs to be predicted and analyzed with dynamic vision and qualitative data in the management process. We should also pay attention to the management and control of cost, schedule and quality, and make a balance and choice among them. Information management refers to integrating the existing production, operation and management activities of enterprises with the help of advanced computer network technology and software technology, and providing timely and accurate data information for enterprise decision-making, so as to timely and accurately respond to external changes. Its essence is to improve the management level of enterprises and enhance their core competitiveness. Informatization construction is also a systematic project, including personnel training, consulting services, scheme design, network equipment procurement, network construction, application selection and other related processes.

1, current situation

With the development of information technology, computer, as a new tool, has a great impact on society. New tools produce new methods, and computer-aided engineering project management has become an advanced and feasible new method. Using computer network system can greatly improve the efficiency of information exchange and data collection, and organize a large number of complex information in an orderly way. However, the misunderstanding of computer will lead to the huge cost of engineering project information management. The characteristics of computer management system are "high investment, high risk and high benefit", and any exaggeration or underestimation of information management system will bring risks to the development of the company.

In the traditional project management, there are similar misunderstandings, which exaggerate or underestimate the difficulty of project management. Therefore, we should carefully analyze the characteristics of project management and information management. We should not hope that the project information management system can replace most of our management work, but improve our work based on new tools, and gradually let everyone accept and produce new management ideas.

The improvement of management level puts forward higher requirements for us, such as the integrated management of finance and business, which requires effective management of a large amount of information. Traditional management methods can't manage so much related data, so we need to find new and effective management methods.

At present, there are a lot of software in the project management information market, with uneven product level and great price difference. Domestic software companies generally have the problems of backward management concepts and poor overall system level, while foreign products have the problems of high procurement and implementation costs. Some domestic industries, such as electric power construction industry and water conservancy construction industry, are better than highway construction industry because they are in contact with foreign supervision. However, we also notice that the highway construction industry is gradually adopting this new management mode, especially some highway construction projects involving foreign capital, which require higher information management.

2. Difficulties in project management

(1) Communication: Generally speaking, managers are most concerned about the cost, benefit, schedule, quality and contract of the project, and its essence is information communication. Because there are many departments involved in project management, the traditional communication methods such as meeting and issuing documents are inefficient in information transmission. It should be said that most problems first appear in communication.

(2) Data: The amount of data about the progress, cost, quality and contract of the project is large and complicated, and the dynamic data is difficult to master. In addition, the drawings and completion data of the project are large, which are generally saved in paper form, so it is very difficult to find and save them.

(3) Uncertainty: Because there are many uncertainties in project management, these uncertainties have seriously affected factors such as cost and schedule, resulting in the situation that the plan can't keep up with the changes and the management is more difficult.
