20.500.12556/RUL-184718 Understanding end-user challenges in digital construction information management The construction industry relies heavily on effective communication and collaboration to manage complex, unique projects, but often faces challenges due to fragmented information and poor data management practises. This paper aims to answer the question of what the key barriers end-users face are when managing information during the construction phase and how these can be effectively assessed and addressed. The study uses a multi-phase approach that includes a comprehensive literature review, the 5M (Manpower, Methods, Machinery, Materials, Management) categorisation framework and the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method, supported by survey data to validate and prioritise the identified barriers. The research found that the main barriers for successful implementation of Common Data Environment (CDE) systems are the use of multiple communication channels, low awareness of the benefits of CDE and insufficient user training and digital skills. These findings are of critical importance for construction professionals, project managers and policy makers looking to improve collaboration, reduce inefficiencies and promote digital transformation in construction projects. The findings encourage future research into targeted training programmes, unified communication protocols and awareness campaigns to improve the uptake of CDE systems and promote a more integrated and efficient construction industry. analytic hierarchy process building information modelling common data environment communication in construction BIM informacijsko modeliranje gradenj CDE skupno podatkovno okolje metoda AHP večkriterijsko odločanje true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2026-07-14 14:13:48 2026-07-14 14:13:55 2026-07-15 04:06:04 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2026 0 0 Str. 1504-1512 no. 4 Vol. 33 2026 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 69 1330-3651 10.17559/TV-20250909002972 284749059 https://hrcak.srce.hr/348700 1 518b0a01-7f7d-11f1-9b0d-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=239769 Brelih...-Understanding_End-User_Challenges_in_Digital_Construction_Information_Management.pdf Brelih...-Understanding_End-User_Challenges_in_Digital_Construction_Information_Management.pdf 1 93065DC5E021B9A278F6DA7F6F3AAB60 e623ab03ede7a057e7ada87863f814268847e1b7dfb723c39cbdc787ff2560c0 6e8e3c08-7f7d-11f1-9b0d-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=239770 Fakulteta za gradbeništvo in geodezijo 0 0 0
