• Abstract:
  This phase of the research project involved two major efforts: (1) Complete the implementation of AEC-Sync (formerly known as ; Attolist) on the Iowa Falls Arch Bridge project and (2) develop a WPMS for projects under $10 million. ; For the first major effort, AEC-Sync was provided for the Iowa DOT in a software as a service agreement, allowing the Iowa DOT to ; rapidly implement the solution with modest effort. During the 2010 fiscal year, the research team was able to help with the ; implementation process for the solution. The research team also collected feedback from the Broadway Viaduct project team members ; before the start of the project and implementation of the solution. For the 2011 fiscal year, the research team collected the post-project ; surveys from the Broadway Viaduct project members and compared them to the pre-project survey results. The result of the AEC-Sync ; implementation in the Broadway Viaduct project was a positive one. The project members were satisfied with the performance of AECSync ; and how it facilitated document management and transparency. In addition, the research team distributed, collected, and analyzed ; the pre-project surveys for the Iowa Falls Arch Bridge project. During the 2012 fiscal year, the research team analyzed the post-project ; surveys for the Iowa Falls Arch Bridge project AEC-Sync implementation and found a positive outcome when compared to the preproject ; surveys. ; The second major effort for this project involved the identification and implementation of a WPMS solution for smaller bridge and ; highway projects. During the 2011 fiscal year, Microsoft SharePoint was selected to be implemented on these smaller highway projects. ; In this year, workflows for the shop/working drawings for the smaller highway projects specified in Section 1105 of the Iowa DOT ; Specifications were developed. These workflows will serve as the guide for the development of the SharePoint pages. In order to ; implement the Microsoft SharePoint pages, the effort of an integrated team proved to be vital because it brought together the expertise ; required from researchers, programmers, and webpage developers to develop the SharePoint pages.
