Information system
[subcaption:Construction materials at Hammarby Sjöstad]
A smart computer system was the tool for distribution of the goods from the LC. As an example of the smart computer system, a web-based calendar was created to prevent traffic congestion. Each contractor who used the same road had their own community in the calendar where they scheduled their direct-deliveries (which were not reloaded at the LC) so a transparency of incoming deliveries was possible among the contractors.
This enables all project managers to synchronise their orders and activities to other surrounding construction work.
The LC provided a traffic coordinator who supported the area. In case of congestion, the traffic coordinator had the possibility to send traffic info through SMS to concerned contractors. This SMS also reached variable signs at the entrance of the area. The coordinator also had the possibility to send SMS to contractors’ mobile phones.
The aim with this procedure was to avoid serious congestion inside the area and it worked out as well as was expected.
