Considering the resource status and potential risks that exist in the CSC, this paper first explores the current CSC re-organization caused by the application of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and related beneficial conditions created by ICT. It then tackles the problem of controlling risk effectively by off-site guarding the upstream of the CSC. Based on the selected approach, the concept and basic mode of a look-ahead supply schedule is proposed.
