Abstract
This paper is the second of two papers on the development of computer-based information systems for local authority property management. The previous paper (Volume 2, Number 1 of journal) discussed the underlying issues. This paper describes by means of a case study, the development of the information system for the management of property. The application to the registration of assets, valuation of property and measurement of performance is appraised. It seeks to show how the system represents an emergent form of property valuation which challenges the conventional income approach.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
