Creation of an information-integrated project management system for reprofiling of industrial facilities

Abstract

Abstract There are renovation and conversion programs currently under way in all major Russian cities with million-plus population. Based on the findings of integrated survey of built-up areas, existing buildings and their architectural and space planning concepts, as well as the outdoor utility systems, and also taking into account economic expediency, developers make decisions on demolition of buildings or converting them into non-production facilities. Despite the available extensive international experience and a wide spread similar trend everywhere in Russia, no system-based, research-backed approach to such projects is known to exist. The article discusses the basic principles of forming a system that permits the interconnection of project participants, organizational structures and information bases, leading to an increase in the effectiveness of the project’s main indicators, provides an opportunity for managers to quickly evaluate the activities of project participants and manage individual modules of the system. The main elements of the system are: conversion; information support, as well as organizational structure. The harmonious synthesis of these elements makes it possible not only to evaluate the existing level of efficiency, but also to design a system of interconnections, as well as to control it. The main basis for the formation of the possibility of designing this is the differentiation of the existing system and its elements into separate organizational and managerial modules. These modules allow to make their quantitative and qualitative assessment, which in turn, makes it possible to control the entire system.
