Herramientas de trabajo colaborativo en el sector de la construcción español. Buenas prácticas para la implementación de la metodología “Último Planificador (LPS)”

The innovation that the construction sector requires is more than simply implementing technology, instead it is necessary to digitize the sector and promote collaborative work among stakeholders, in order to improve on-site management. Many countries around the world have incorporated tools to facilitate collaborative work in their processes. In the US particularly, there are many companies which are implementing the LPS methodology, and they are even applying this concept to the execution of works, supplementing it with BIM tools. In Spain, however, the implementation of such tools is relatively recent. By using a survey, this article seeks to determine the level of knowledge that stakeholders involved in the Spanish construction sector have about the collaborative work model, specifically BIM and LPS tools. Furthermore, a group of experts proposes a selection of Best Practices (BP) for the application of these tools to a case study in Madrid (Spain).
