Abstract:

A facility control system includes lab, field and construction equipment with a wireless transceiver to transmit machine generated actual initial measurement (AIM) data from a field test to a wide area network; a mobile computer with a wireless transceiver to transmit human generated data from an office, a remote lab, or a field test to the network; and a server coupled to the network, the server including a database to receive machine and human generated AIM data, wherein the server applies statistics and engineering methods to predict specification compliance and performance, wherein the AIM data is used with pre formatted engineered designed data sheets that reflect the exact location of the event and required standards including incorporating best construction practices for installation of one or more construction items and materials quality to promote standardization, uniformity that insures contract compliance and minimizes non-conforming items, wherein the AIM and AFM data is determined on the server over the network in real time, wherein the server, lab equipment, and mobile computer form a systematic approach to provide real time dynamic reports regarding one or more components of a capital improvement program (CIP); wherein the systematic approach enables one or more construction teams to generate dynamic reports in real time with best practice engineered designed data sheets for installation and testing of project activities and construction items, and wherein the systematic approach supports indexing of complete project specific data to facilitate document retrieval and project collaboration.This systematic approach provides an efficient novel approach for managing one project and or a program and/or portfolio that includes a plurality of projects that and facilitate the rollup. The invention also enable independent projects to be manage in real time and allow the rollup of the independent projects that comprise a portfolio.
