Overview: In complex and concurrent construction projects, reliable planning becomes a centre for effective collaboration across upstream supply chains and downstream operations at the work face. This paper introduces a new methodology called 'multi-constraint planning', which possesses five superior characteristics including collaborative and multi-level planning, multi-constraint consideration, effective uncertainty handling, appropriate visual representation and practicable optimization. An integrated decision support system that incorporates web-based and mobile information management system, 4D-visualisation system, and evolutionary optimization system is successfully developed as an enabler for implementation of the proposed methodology.
