Abstract

The construction industry faces numerous challenges, including project delays, inefficient resource utilization, and safety risks, which hinder project management efficiency. This study investigates the impact of an IoT-based Construction Project Monitoring System (CPMS) on improving these critical aspects. Using a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test design involving 120 project managers and field supervisors, the study analyzes key performance indicators such as project completion time, resource utilization, work safety, and decision-making efficiency. The results demonstrate significant improvements, including a 14.3% reduction in project duration, a 60% decrease in equipment idle time and material wastage, a 75% reduction in safety incidents, and a 66.7% increase in decision-making speed. These findings confirm the transformative potential of IoT in addressing operational inefficiencies and enhancing safety in construction. While challenges such as data security and system integration persist, this research underscores the need for broader adoption of IoT and targeted training to maximize its benefits.
