Abstract: Abstract The focus of this chapter is on the implementation of collaboration technologies in the context of the construction industry. Our empirical setting involves the introduction of a web-based collaboration platform for progress monitoring, co-ordination of project activities, project record keeping, information sharing and exchange in a construction consortium, constituted of geographical dispersed business units and organizations. This research seeks to identify and understand impacts in management and work arrangements in the emerging network information infrastructure.
