Abstract

One of the management challenges in the construction industry is managing personnel in large construction sites and and tracking the status of work.        Modern construction management has applied technology as a tool to support this operation. This article presents the design and development of a web based information system for on-site construction workers’ management for a private construction company to help supervisors track personnel location and monitor the progress of assigned tasks. The proposed system is developed using the React framework and Node.js, connected to the PostgreSQL and PostGIS databases. Personnel location detection uses a Neo-6m device with an ESP32 as a medium to convert values ​​and transfer data to the web server. The test results showed that the proposed system could work properly as designed. For the evaluation results from the 15 related users, it was found that the system can track personal location and monitor the status of work very efficiently and to the satisfaction of those involved at a very good level.
