Resumen

Construction supervisors have an essential role in the operations of the construction industry, as it is their duty to manage workers and resources, define work plans, and foster a safe hazard-free workplace. Research has consistently emphasized the importance of effective supervision in enhancing field productivity. Although existing studies have examined the significance and best practices of construction frontline supervision, little research has been conducted on the influence of various technologies on these supervisory practices. This paper aims to investigate how the adoption of different technologies affects the time allocation for frontline supervision tasks. To accomplish this objective, an online questionnaire was administered to 1062 frontline supervisors. The survey sought to determine the percentage of time dedicated to different tasks and whether specific technologies were utilized on-site. The analysis of the collected data revealed noteworthy findings, indicating that the implementation of several technologies statistically impacted the time spent on 'supervision,' 'administration,' 'planning,' and 'training' activities.
