Work Item: ASTM WK19875 - New Practice for Construction Job Productivity Measurement


Developed by Subcommittee: E06.81 | Committee E06 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Scope

1.1 This practice establishes a process for measuring construction job productivity by comparing labor usage to construction put in place (CPIP). 1.2 Job productivity measurement (JPM), a derivative of job productivity assurance and control (JPAC), measures labor productivity of the installation processes on a construction job. 1.3 CPIP is measured with input from the labor performing the installation using elements of statistical process control (SPC) and industrial engineering. 1.4 JPM takes into account the difficulty of installation at any given point on a job. 1.5 JPM evaluates relative productivity changes using trend monitoring.
