Describe the computer usage in preparing work programme.

Most construction contracts require the contractor to produce a program of works. This can
be a non-contractual reference point for how work will be carried out or it can impose
obligations to deliver the works in a certain way and by certain dates.
If the program of works is included in the list of contract documents it will become binding on
the parties. There are benefits and risks associated with doing that.

Computerized planning software has become the best alternative for any agency in
formulating their plans. In the construction industry using planning software has been
prioritized and received support from various government agencies such as PWD, JPS and
so on. Since this technology is still new among local contractors, contractors had to get
talent related to the realization of their work plans. By using planning software, the owners,
contractors and consultants also able to control and implement a project (construction) with
a more effective and efficient.

Computer usage in prepare work program is flexible features help the work more efficiently.
For example, if forgot to account for any aspect of a job (like extra labor required for custom
door jambs), simply tell the system to remember that item for all future jobs. Every future job
benefits from everything that has learned from previous jobs.
Using computer can be fast platform for production and material planning. Operations
professionals need to apply logic and rules that fit the business.
