Poor information management, lack of collaboration, poor levels of communication, and lack of integration are the major issues identified which could result in adverse consequences for the completion of precast construction projects. For effective collaboration and communication, industry requires a system that is able to deliver up-to-date information to the stakeholder. The purpose of this research is to develop a context-aware collaboration system for precast concrete supply chain management. Context-aware computing is capable of identifying the various users’ needs related to their roles, activities, location, and the time required to deliver specific information and services. The user-requirements study with the precast stakeholders in Malaysia was conducted through a pilot and detailed semi-structured interviews to understand the user needs in the precast concrete supply chain phases. The information obtained from these studies led to the formulation of the system design goals, functional specifications, and system-architecture development and, eventually, to the development of a prototype context-aware collaboration system. The prototype was evaluated, and validated by precast stakeholders. Findings showed that 80% of respondents agreed that the proposed concept would be able to provide the precast stakeholders with appropriate and up-to-date information for them to improve their decision-making processes. This research concludes that the concept of a context-aware collaboration system is feasible and able to provide a progressive collaborative process and intelligent information-management tool which will enhance collaboration and improve communication for precast stakeholders fahmimoksen UTM 359 p.
