Establishing and processing client requirements- a key aspect of concurrent engineering in construction

摘要

The realization that concurrent engineering can be adopted in construction has led to various efforts to develop appropriate tools and techniques for its imple- mentation in the industry. This paper discusses the role of client requirements processing in implementing con- current engineering in construction. Client requirements processing refers to the definition, analysis, and transla- tion of client requirements into solution-neutral specifica- the client, and provides for the effective consideration, resolution and prioritization of the various perspectives within the client body.
