A trust-based dashboard to manage building construction activity

Coordination of construction activities is essential to ensure the quality of built works, the respect of delays or the interactions between heterogeneous actors involved in an AEC project. The coordination activity has become a contractual task in numerous countries and specialized actors have emerged. Their work is largely based on their experience and their skills to analyze building situations and to anticipate the dysfunctions that could happen. In this article we address the issue of trust and its potential role in coordination of AEC construction projects. Then, we suggest a methodology enabling the identification of trust indicator in the good progress of the activity. Our final proposal consists of a dashboard tool for construction manager integrating the concept of trust.
