Digitalization and usage of QR-code System in Documents Management
الملخص
Multiple official documents from various departments have contributed to the rising number of printed pages in construction projects. The dominant explanation for this trend is that printed pages have a direct relationship with the progression of the project as the number of quality assurance, quality control documents, health and safety documents, technical documents, lean and enhancement documents, and store documents get increased with the project timeline. The research data was obtained from one of the infrastructure projects in the north of Qatar between 2020 and 2023 and in line with multiple academic references as listed in the last section of the paper (Ågren, 2014). Contrary to what has often been assumed, the rise in printed pages due to mentioned documents contributes to impacting the earth’s environment badly, affecting global warming, cutting additional trees from green lands, reducing project KPIs, increasing overall project budget cost, and generating material waste. Lean enhancement engineers proposed replacing all the above-mentioned documents to be used in the digital format.
