A Study on the Applicability of Project Management Tracking with the Integration of Jira, Confluence, and Trello in Construction Project Management and the Differences and Advantages of Different Planning Softwares

Abstract

Globally, traditional project management methods are employed in the construction sector, with the utilisation of digital tools in project management remaining relatively uncommon. The utilisation of digital tools in construction project management will facilitate developments that will prove invaluable in project management tracking, coordination, communication between teams, cost analysis for future projects and risk management. The utilisation of new softwares such as Confluence, Trello and Jira tools facilitates real-time project tracking in construction project management, optimises business processes, strengthens and renders as transparent as necessary the coordination and communication between teams, provides digital project management, facilitates the follow-up of project management, identifies with greater clarity and speed the elements that impede project progress and creates analyses for future projects. This study presents illustrative examples of the usability of construction project management tracking with Jira, Confluence and Trello integration, and discusses the advantages of this approach in comparison to other project management software and project planning programs.
