Abstract
Kevin Miller and I conducted a survey for the benefit of the Construction Management Department at Brigham Young University. The survey also benefitted two professional associations of the construction industry, namely, the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC), and the Association of Building Contractors (ABC). The purposes of the survey were to: evaluate current use of software in the industry; gain information for seminars held by the AGC and ABC; determine the level of interest in a proposed graduate program for the Construction Management Department; and expand job opportunities for BYU’s construction management graduates and interns. In conducting the survey we ran into unexpected problems, and while some minor parts of the research project are yet unfinished, the survey itself has proved successful.
