The construction industry is facing a data tsunami, while emerging information technologies (IT) show great potential for the effective processing of these data or information. However, a comprehensive review for technological change, the resulting process, and organizational changes in the Big Data context, especially from the angle of whole lifecycle of construction project, is lacking. To fill the void, related works published in the databases of Web of Science, Science Direct, and American Society of Civil Engineers library are systematically reviewed. The general trend in emerging IT application in terms of construction project management (CPM) phases, technology and application, and research topics are revealed. Following this analysis, the particularized proposals in relation to each of the main topics within CPM is discussed. Furthermore, according to the advances and limitations of the current literature, corresponding future agendas such as the implementation of comprehensive data-driven CPM scenario are proposed to bridge the gaps between theoretical research and practical demands.

Government-invested construction projects have their own characteristics, and effective management can be achieved only by adopting corresponding appropriate management approaches. The characteristics of government-invested construction project management and corresponding serious problems existed in present management are analyzed and summarized at first. Secondly, the countermeasures to above problems are put forward. Then, an information management system framework for government-invested project management is proposed on the basis of the foregoing work. This framework can realize the fusion of project information management system and E-government system and achieve the institutionalization, standardization, informatization and lifecycle management for government-invested project by means of multiple modernized information technologies and professional software. Finally, the development and application of the developed information system validate the effectiveness to promote the management level of government-invested construction project. The work involved in this paper can provide reference for the management of other similar construction projects.

Project stakeholders play an important role in the implementation process of sustainable construction. Due to different attributes of each stakeholder in the project, their importance level is different. This paper firstly identifies 13 project stakeholders based on Chinese construction project management mechanism and then a questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate their importance. This finding indicates that client and government play extremely important role in the sustainable construction; all the project stakeholders are important in the three aspects and the importance level order of project stakeholders in the three aspects is different.
