Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure belongs to the field of computer technology, and in particular relates to a method and system for monitoring the entire electrical construction process. Background Technology

[0002] The statements in this section are merely background information relating to this disclosure and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] Electrical construction management, as a specialty of petrochemical enterprises, has its own independent system and professionalism. In today's rapidly changing world of new models and technologies, digitalization and intelligentization have provided new possibilities for construction management, freeing engineering and technical personnel from tedious basic work and providing more accurate data support for project decision-making.

[0004] Traditional project management models for construction companies suffer from problems such as large workload in progress statistics, inaccurate data statistics, and high energy consumption, making it difficult to track the efficiency of construction teams. The collection and organization of handover documents consumes a lot of time for engineering and technical personnel, creating a burden and hindering the current construction organization model with large project scale and short construction cycle. Repetitive tasks such as various technical statistical tables fill the construction management process, resulting in low management efficiency, low accuracy, and high labor intensity for construction companies. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of the existing technologies, this disclosure provides a method for monitoring the entire electrical construction process. It utilizes new technologies such as information technology and big data to build an information platform for the management of the entire electrical construction process, thereby realizing the process-oriented monitoring of construction and real-time data statistics.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, one or more embodiments of this disclosure provide the following technical solutions:

[0007] Firstly, the method for monitoring the entire electrical construction process was disclosed, including:

[0008] Develop a data entry template, use the data entry template to import and store equipment data with tag numbers and material data without tag numbers, edit the equipment data with tag numbers, and encode the material data without tag numbers so that it can be identified and collected into the corresponding process.

[0009] Complete the setup of all electrical construction work processes and generate electrical system diagrams;

[0010] When uploading a single file or compressed package, fill in the corresponding drawing number when entering and uploading the template for each process. The drawing can be opened quickly based on the drawing number.

[0011] Showcasing the progress of the project.

[0012] As a further technical solution, the device data with a tag number includes electrical equipment data, and the material data without a tag number is the material data corresponding to lamps, cable trays, and protective pipes.

[0013] As a further technical solution, data entry templates are used to import and store equipment data with tag numbers and material data without tag numbers. Specifically:

[0014] Based on the basic attribute information of equipment with tag numbers and the attribute judgment information of materials without tag numbers, classify them into their respective template tables according to equipment and materials, and import them into the database.

[0015] As a further technical solution, the database defines each person's job type, wage, construction team, and work scope by calling the attendance machine's backend statistical data, combining the reported completion volume with the man-hours consumed to complete the project, thereby monitoring the labor efficiency and actual labor costs of specific individuals.

[0016] As a further technical solution, the process progress display specifically includes: recording and summarizing process data traces one by one according to the different record formats of different processes, and displaying and querying the catalog of the next process with piece statistics, real-time progress statistics, and conditions at any time.

[0017] As a further technical solution, encoding is performed on material data without reference numbers, specifically as follows:

[0018] Materials for unnumbered processes such as grounding, lighting, and power in the bill of materials are coded to enable identification and grouping into the corresponding processes.

[0019] As a further technical solution, the generation of electrical system diagrams specifically includes:

[0020] By using cable tag numbers as the judgment logic, the upstream and downstream equipment of the cable are connected, and a dynamic electrical system diagram is formed through dynamic image editing;

[0021] The generated system diagram not only displays the inherent properties of the equipment and cables, but also dynamically distinguishes and displays completed and incomplete stages based on the on-site construction progress reports.

[0022] Secondly, a full-process electrical construction monitoring system was disclosed, including:

[0023] The data entry module is configured to: create a data entry template, import and store data of equipment with tag numbers and material without tag numbers using the data entry template, edit data of equipment with tag numbers, and encode data of material without tag numbers so that it can be identified and collected into the corresponding process.

[0024] The project progress monitoring module is configured to: complete the setup of all electrical construction work processes and generate electrical system diagrams;

[0025] When uploading a single file or compressed package, fill in the corresponding drawing number when entering and uploading the template for each process. The drawing can be opened quickly based on the drawing number.

[0026] Showcasing the progress of the project.

[0027] The above one or more technical solutions have the following beneficial effects:

[0028] This invention is based on a defined data entry template. It imports and stores data on equipment with tag numbers and materials without tag numbers, thereby enabling automatic classification and identification of the data. Based on the generated electrical system diagram, it dynamically distinguishes and displays completed and incomplete stages according to the on-site construction progress report.

[0029] This invention redefines the construction management model, and uses advanced technologies such as digitalization and big data to achieve the informatization and intelligentization of electrical construction management.

[0030] Advantages of additional aspects of the invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0036] Example 1

[0037] This embodiment discloses a method for monitoring the entire electrical construction process, including:

[0038] Develop a data entry template, use the data entry template to import and store equipment data with tag numbers and material data without tag numbers, edit the equipment data with tag numbers, and encode the material data without tag numbers so that it can be identified and collected into the corresponding process.

[0039] Complete the setup of all electrical construction work processes and generate electrical system diagrams;

[0040] When uploading a single file or compressed package, fill in the corresponding drawing number when entering and uploading the template for each process. The drawing can be opened quickly based on the drawing number.

[0041] Showcasing the progress of the project.

[0042] To implement the above solution, see the appendix. Figure 1 As shown, it specifically includes:

[0043] Data upload: Uploaded data includes equipment data with tag numbers and material data without tag numbers;

[0044] Data completion: This includes entering nameplate information, debugging data, and generating handover documents;

[0045] Reporting completed work: This includes management personnel verifying the work volume, generating a process piece statistics table, generating a real-time progress statistics table, generating a table of conditions for the next process, and displaying the completion status in real time using a dynamic system diagram;

[0046] Data processing and access: including convenient applications such as accessing laying schedules, statistical base for project progress, statistical base for progress of each process, total project cost, generation of dynamic electrical system diagrams, viewing of drawings for different processes, generation of progress reporting interface, and generation of handover data header information.

[0047] During electrical construction, the electrical engineering quantity consists of electrical equipment such as cables, motors, and transformers with reference numbers, and materials such as lamps, cable trays, and protective pipes without reference numbers. Based on their basic attribute information such as specifications, models, quantities, voltage levels, and device unit affiliation codes, as well as attribute judgment information such as process affiliation codes, corresponding business identification codes, and material classification codes, the equipment and materials are classified and filled into their respective template forms. The data is then imported into the software platform database, transforming the textual information that can be interpreted and classified manually into data that the software system can recognize and classify.

[0048] In accordance with construction management standards and industry practices, the system compiles and outputs databases and interfaces that need to be filled in during the construction process, including progress statistics, cost estimates, user-friendly forms, handover documents, and work volume reports. These databases and interfaces await further data refinement. Once construction begins, the system reports the completion volume of each process daily. The backend records and summarizes the reporting person, reporting time, completed content, and completion volume according to the different record formats for different processes, forming a process data trail. It also provides daily management functions such as piecework statistics, real-time progress statistics, and a directory of the next process if conditions permit. These functions are displayed and queried through different modules of the software, avoiding the laborious and time-consuming situation of performing various statistics on an ad-hoc basis.

[0049] Data upload requires the use of a data entry template, specifically:

[0050] Data entry templates are developed: The business management and material management departments edit both numbered and unnumbered quantities of work. Templates are developed based on their basic attributes such as specifications, models, quantities, and business identification codes. The business management department edits numbered work items such as motor management, cable management, panel management, and AC circuit breaker management. The material management department encodes materials for unnumbered processes such as grounding, lighting, and power in the material list so that they can be identified by the system and collected into the corresponding process, awaiting secondary data processing.

[0051] The two sets of data mentioned above can cover the total electrical construction work for a project. The templates for each process are designed to align with actual construction practices. Based on the technical records of the engineering personnel, device, unit, and process codes are configured. The process codes within the business management section are the default. Once the configuration of these two templates is complete, the setup of all instrumentation and electrical processes for the entire project is finished, and an electrical system diagram can be generated.

[0052] Cables are the link between power transmission equipment in substations and on-site electrical equipment. By using cable tag numbers as the judgment logic, upstream and downstream can be connected. Dynamic electrical system diagrams are generated through dynamic image editing. This diagram is a shared chart used by electrical professionals from design, construction to equipment production and operation. The system diagram generated by this system can not only display the attributes of equipment and cables themselves, but also dynamically distinguish and display completed and incomplete links based on the on-site construction progress report. Completed links are displayed in green, and incomplete links are displayed in red.

[0053] The system diagram described above can be easily accessed through three entry points: cable management, motor management, and panel management. Completed items are displayed in green, while incomplete items are displayed in red. Within the system diagram, panels, cables, motors, control columns, heaters, etc., are all individual nodes, which can be clicked to display basic information and status.

[0054] This implementation example also includes drawing management:

[0055] Implemented using dedicated storage space, and with flexible directory tree partitioning, different directories such as "Drawings," "Handover Documents," "Visas," "Changes," and "Engineering Liaison Forms" can be created simultaneously to store electronic process documents. It can recognize various file types including CAD, PDF, WORD, EXCEL, and images. This is used for daily construction management, personnel change handover, and data preservation and retrieval for engineering and technical personnel upon project completion and departure. Stored drawings, changes, and other files are associated with business management based on their filenames. Specifically, each management module's template includes data fields such as "Drawing Number" and "Budget Source," which are linked to the filenames in the drawing management module, allowing for the retrieval of drawings, changes, and other files across different modules.

[0056] In addition, when reporting the completed work: the daily report of installation materials, labor hours, and specific labels for the specific work volume of each process are divided. By performing the corresponding operation on each label, the reporting action of the work volume or labor hours can be completed.

[0057] Since the daily installation materials report only shows the quantity and not the tag number, it can be filtered by budget number, name, process code, etc. to find the corresponding work quantity and fill in the completed quantity for the day. If you are filling in the report as a specific work team, you can only see and operate the work quantity within your own construction scope; while if you are operating as a technician, you can see and operate only the work quantity within your own scope or the work quantity of the entire project, depending on the settings.

[0058] For example, the process code "611" represents the grounding process, where 61 represents the grounding wire. After selecting it, the image below will display all grounding wire quantities. Add the installation quantity to the corresponding quantity list. Up to 10 items can be displayed and entered on the same page. Click the "OK" button to complete the entry. Over-entry is not allowed. If there are any errors, you can enter a negative number for editing or review.

[0059] Cable handling is the most significant process in electrical engineering. Each cable has a unique tag number. Cable laying tables are used to generate cable templates, and similarly, workload reporting templates are created based on the tag number, allowing users to select whether piping is complete, whether laying is complete, start point wiring, end point wiring, and other information. The system also features redundancy and error correction: each import can be a table of all cables, a partial table, or even just a single cable. Based on the unique cable tag number, if the tag number is the same but the information is different, the new information is overwritten. If the imported tag number is blank, the original information is retained. This greatly simplifies data statistics and entry.

[0060] Based on the workload reporting information from the computer terminal, users can perform fuzzy searches for specific tag numbers and then select the work status. Alternatively, they can upload data using templates, similar to cable tags, facilitating easy quantity calculation. The quantity reporting operation for other tags is similar and will not be shown individually.

[0061] This embodiment of the sub-technical solution mainly realizes detailed statistics of engineering quantities, combined statistics of engineering quantities and settlement unit prices to calculate engineering costs, retention of construction process traces (recording information such as the person who reported, the reporting time, the completed work content, and the completed engineering quantity, which can be used for team performance evaluation), convenient application expansion, convenient statistics to guide daily construction, and archiving of process data to facilitate work handover and completion archiving.

[0062] Previously, engineering technicians had to compile statistics on cable terminals and create cable laying tables based on cable lists, a time-consuming, labor-intensive, and error-prone task. These two tasks can be automated by the system in this disclosed technical solution. The system's backend extracts useful information from the cable lists, correlates them, and, through logical judgment and calculation, displays the necessary information in tables in the required format. Then, by filtering, detailed statistical tables and laying tables with different attributes, such as different areas or responsible personnel, can be generated.

[0063] At the same time, by searching for any motor or cable, the relevant drawings in the "Drawing Management" space can be retrieved through their respective management modules or dynamic electrical system diagram links, saving the time of searching for paper drawings and the risk of losing drawings.

[0064] The development and application of a full-process electrical construction management platform system has redefined the construction management model. By utilizing advanced technologies such as digitalization and big data, it has achieved the informatization and intelligentization of electrical construction management. Furthermore, the development of this disclosed technical solution reserves interfaces between subsequent construction management specialties and processes, enabling further:

[0065] Integration with warehousing for inbound, outbound, and return management:

[0066] By filling in material classification codes for various equipment and materials, the system can define and identify their identities. Through this code, the materials and equipment in the process are linked to the warehouse management system. The system can call and query the warehouse management system (another management system developed by the company at the same time) for arrival plans, inventory, and other information at any time, realizing unified and one-stop management of inbound, outbound, and return of goods, eliminating the communication costs between engineering and technical personnel and material supply personnel.

[0067] Integrating with quality control, process acceptance, and handover management:

[0068] The definition of work completion is that it must be inspected and confirmed by our quality control personnel, and then accepted and confirmed by the supervisor and the owner before the work process is truly completed and can be handed over to the next construction process. More stakeholders are involved in the process software, achieving multi-party collaboration. Push notifications and approval processes can be set up, adding an acceptance step. For example, the reported completion of a process triggers a push notification to the quality inspector. After receiving the notification, the quality inspector conducts a quality check. If the inspection is satisfactory, the notification is pushed to the supervisor for inspection and acceptance. After all parties have accepted the work, the handover documents show the signatures of all parties, closing the loop for that process. This further improves the management of quality inspection, process acceptance, and process handover.

[0069] Integration with business operations:

[0070] Construction engineering is ultimately an economic activity. Every process and action is linked to costs and revenues. By assigning an operational identification code to each work item, and retrieving pre-uploaded unit prices for revenue and expenditure from the database using this code, all our construction activities, based on completed work items, can be displayed anytime, anywhere. This provides real-time data support for our managers, enabling timely corrections. Simultaneously, the workload of operational staff will be significantly reduced. With a dedicated person configuring the corresponding operational identification code for each project's work process, progress payments and settlement payments can be displayed at any time based on work completion and acceptance status, eliminating the need for dedicated operational staff to perform routine monthly calculations of contract and subcontract settlements.

[0071] Integration with time and attendance machines:

[0072] In the future, this management platform will call the statistical data from the attendance machine's backend to define and manage information such as each person's job type, wage, construction team, and scope of work in a standardized manner. By incorporating this information into the process software, it can combine the reported completion volume with the man-hours consumed to complete the project, thereby monitoring detailed information such as the labor efficiency and actual labor costs of specific individuals. This will have a positive effect on efficiency accounting, cost statistics, and project management.
