Abstract

See full text

A method and an apparatus for searching for and tracking construction projects includes a mass data storage device (12, 19, 26, 44) for storing as databases project information and document information related to construction projects. A member terminal (10) includes a computer (12) connected to an input device (16, 18, 20) and a display device (14). A user enters the databases using the input device (16, 18, 20) to mark at least one construction project identification for tracking based upon selection of at least one key word contained in the project information stored in the databases. The databases are periodically updated to reflect changes in the stored information and subsequent access to the databases causes the computer (12) to automatically display on the display device (14) each marked construction project for which the related information changed since the last time the user entered the databases. The databases can be stored on hard disk, CD-ROM or a remote server (40) for communicating via a telephone line (30) with the member terminal (10).
