Abstract
The construction process has a profound role withing the infrastructure, and lais the foundation for the construction itself. It can be described as layout of how the construction will be managed, provided for and organized. Therefore, this process involves several actors. The construction process involves activities such as inventory, needs investigations, designs for technical solutions, production and management. The same pattern of activities within the building process can be found within the railway industry. Railway projects have during many years been designed and governed with a pen and a paper. Therefore, one can assume that complications and errors have occurred as a result of this method. However, due to the trend of... (More)

Abstract (Swedish)
Byggprocessen har en omfattande roll i det infrastrukturella bygget och utgör grunden till en byggnation. Man kan uttrycka byggprocessen som en helhetsbild av hur uppförandet av en byggnad/anläggning går till. Många olika aktörer är involverade i denna process. Byggprocessen innefattar allt från inventeringar, behovsutredningar, gestaltningar till tekniska lösningar, produktion och förvaltning. Även byggprocessen inom järnvägsbranschen ser liknande ut. I flera år har man styrt olika järnvägsprojekt med hjälp av hand, penna och papper, och man kan tänka sig att många komplikationer och fel uppstått som följd av detta tillvägagångssätt. Med åren har det dock skett en digital utveckling som än idag pågår. Byggprocessen för alla branscher och... (More)
Byggprocessen har en omfattande roll i det infrastrukturella bygget och utgör grunden till en byggnation. Man kan uttrycka byggprocessen som en helhetsbild av hur uppförandet av en byggnad/anläggning går till. Många olika aktörer är involverade i denna process. Byggprocessen innefattar allt från inventeringar, behovsutredningar, gestaltningar till tekniska lösningar, produktion och förvaltning. Även byggprocessen inom järnvägsbranschen ser liknande ut. I flera år har man styrt olika järnvägsprojekt med hjälp av hand, penna och papper, och man kan tänka sig att många komplikationer och fel uppstått som följd av detta tillvägagångssätt. Med åren har det dock skett en digital utveckling som än idag pågår. Byggprocessen för alla branscher och inte bara järnvägsbranschen har övergått från att vara analog till att den idag är en digital process. Digitala verktyg och vektorbaserade ritningsprogram har börjat användas, vilket effektiviserat arbetet och gjort så att antalet fel i processen reducerats. Att det trots detta inträffar fel och komplikationer i byggprocessen är inte ovanligt.
För att kunna förstå vilka problem som uppstår och varför de uppstår, har en litteraturstudie genomförts. Litteraturstudien har sedermera kompletterats med en intervjustudie med avsikten att jämföra teorin med praktiken. Intervjustudien innefattar intervjuer och observationer på företaget Rejlers som bedriver arbete inom flera tekniska branscher, bland annat järnvägsbranschen.
Det finns ett flertal problem som kan uppstå under byggprocessen. De flesta problemen uppstår på grund av ett ineffektivt arbetssätt. Det ineffektiva arbetssättet grundar sig på följande bakomliggande faktorer: kommunikation, samordning, information, kunskap, stress, risktagande, engagemang, mänskliga faktorer, osäkerheter i omgivning samt instabila organisationer. För att arbeta på ett förbyggande sätt så att problem inte uppstår måste man få ordning på dessa bakomliggande faktorer, genom bland annat bättre planering och olika återförningsmöte. (Less)
