Abstract: ERP implementations within large scale construction organizations have yielded more failures than successes. As a result of this high failure rate, the integration capability of ERP systems could not be fully understood and recognized by the construction (AEC) industry. The aim of the research presented in this paper was to investigate the role of ERP systems in enabling and facilitating Data Level Integration in construction industry organizations. In parallel with this aim, an ERP Data Level Integration Capability Matrix was developed as the metric for measuring the capability of ERP systems in enabling Data Level Integration. The matrix is validated with four case studies. The development of the matrix and the results of the case studies are presented in this paper.
