Abstract
This research paper developed a framework for integrating RFID based material management to improve on site material tracking processes. In order to develop the framework, a literature review on material management problems on site and implementation of RFID technology in construction industry were conducted. Case studies were also conducted to examine material management practice on site and problems faced during material management. An initial study exposed that there is a potential to improve the use of RFID technology to mitigate the problems arises during management and tracking of material on site. This research paper concludes the finding from the case studies for developing a framework for real time material tracking on construction site to improve project delivery process.
