Towards An Integration Electronic Workforce Integration Tracking System

Abstract

The use and application of digital tools to improve the process of delivering and operating the built environment is known as digital construction. The construction industry in Malaysia has been slow to adopt technology, but it is poised to see the integration of several digital technologies. The advantages of digitalization in the construction industry include increased productivity, profitability, and firm innovation capabilities. This study aims to develop E-Workforce Tracking System (E-WITS) for project monitoring in the construction industry. Quantitative data were statistically examined using descriptive analysis (mean, standard deviation) and internal consistency using the Cronbach alpha value. The value of Cronbach’s Alpha is 0.75 for the 20 numbers of questions which means that the questionnaire has excellent consistency. The result shows that respondent preferred using E-WITS (Mean = 4.929, SD = 0.196) compare with existing method (Mean=1.161, SD = 0.211). This means that E-WITS was more effective compared with the existing method. E-WITS was highly recommended to be used by personnel in the industry since the users are highly satisfied with this user-friendly website tracking system.
