Hello Planners,

Background

this is not advertising, but more of like sharing my experience with the planning community (being a programmer myself)

on how to deal with issues that may arise in your project, which i am sure would be many issues that contributed to your project delays and lateness etc...

 

Solution

What we done, was we use iPAD to capture issues that are on the project, either it be building an aeroplane, building, trains

and by doing this, we have shorten the time it takes to get the issues from the identification into the systems which will alert management and repair team to fixed.

with the assist of the iPAD 2 , we can also be able to take photos, so the repair team can know exactly what the problem was.

it was a time saver and i am sure many programmer here will benefit of this technology.

 

Demostration

we actually have developed the application and commercialising it. to take advantage of tablets (iPAD or Android)

in capturing the issue right there and get the data back to the repair team without writing it on a piece of paper and then re-typing it in the computer later.

    Hi Phoung

    I think it is an advertisement but never mind - thanks for the information.

    Asta have a similar system called Site Manager.

    But then I have been doing this for years using my Nokia mobile phone and spreadsheets.

    Hello Mike Telstro,Thank you

    Hello Mike Telstro,

    Thank you for your reply Mike,

    >Asta have a similar system called Site Manager.

    • I am fully aware of the Asta, but it is using the conventional steps, which is allow users to attach images,
      not using the build-in camera from the iPAD or Android to snap photos straight away and done.

    >But then I have been doing this for years using my Nokia mobile phone and spreadsheets.

    Conventional Steps

    1. Using your Nokia Phone, you would take photos of the defect. of issue
    2. You would carry around your laptop and enter the item in your Spreadsheet.
    3. you would then need to carefully enter in which photos is related to which issue on your spreadsheet.
    4. THEN: you would go back to your desk, plug in your NOKIA phone to download the pictures.
    5. You will need to copy and paste these information into a Primavera database or Asta and attachment the images to the correct ISSUE,
    6. You will now be careful not to mix up which photo for which issue line item on the spreadsheet.
      (this can be tricky, if you have many picture for 1 issue)
    7. any all these step is fine, if you only have a few issue / defect in your project.

    DANGCORP steps

    1. Using the iPAD or any tablet  (Android)
    2. you will enter in the necessary categories (user codes, WBS, system etc...)
      this will then be use to route to which repair team, which department to get this issue,defect fix.
    3. Then click on the CAMERA and it will lauch the build-in iPAD camera. take your photo and you are done.
    4. an email notificaiton will be send to the correct team to get the issue fix.

    REAL LIFE EXAMPLE

    1. Inspector one would walk around a construction site,
    2. while he/she is snapping up issues/defect on the building with her iPAD, a team gets notification and fix it immediately.
    3. this is good for SHELL petrol maintenance and turn around etc....

     

    Thanks Mike and look forward to yours and the planners up here feedback on the system.

     

    Cheers

    Hi Phoung I have never yet

    Hi Phoung

    I have never yet had to produce a specific bar chart for defects liability - the erratic and unforeseen nature of the work makes it impossible.

    It is usually done with a puinch list which is then sorted into some sort of priority order - on a spreadsheet.

    When the defect is repaired the item is ticked off the sheet.

    The example that you have stated has no relevance to construction programming.

    Best regards
