Abstract. In today's society, with the rapid development of economy, the scope of computer
application technology has been gradually expanded and applied in various fields. And
computer application technology plays a decisive role in engineering projects, the development
of engineering project management must rely on the application of computer. Therefore, this
article mainly discusses the application of computer application technology in engineering
project management, hoping to provide some help for related workers.

1. Introduction
Engineering project management is a comprehensive professional discipline, and pays more attention
to cultivating compound management talents in talent training. With the rapid development of
computer electronic information technology, it has become an indispensable technical content in
engineering project management. In the actual project engineering management, the application of
computer technology can fully integrate all kinds of data information in engineering projects. It is also
completely saving data information and making project engineering management more effective, and
the scope of application of computer application technology is also extensive, making the management
of engineering projects convenient and fast. This greatly improves the efficiency and effect of project
management, and significantly improves the overall management quality of the project. It can be seen
that the application of computer electronic information technology in engineering management is of
great significance, enterprises need to pay more attention to this in engineering management.

2. Disadvantages of traditional engineering project management

2.1. Low attention to informatization

On the whole, there are still a large number of managers who have not established awareness of using
information technology for project management, and do not actively pay attention to the latest
developments in current information technology. Still using backward and inefficient management
methods, it is make engineering management information inaccessible. In addition, the awareness of
management personnel in the organization unit did not keep up with the trend in time, resulting in
imperfect information system construction and low quality, and could not provide basic support for the
information management of the project. So, China's engineering project management is still in a
relatively backward situation.

2.2. High working intensity

Project management contains a wide range of content, If only rely on labour to handle these
complicated processes, it will obviously increase the work intensity of employees. It may also affect
the accuracy of the information data, thus affecting the construction of the project.

2.3. Less contact with the international

In terms of project management, future projects will inevitably be in line with international standards,
traditional management models may not be able to meet the needs of modern project construction.

3. The features of computer application technology

3.1. Resource Sharing

Resource sharing refers to the relevant authority terminal and user project management information
opened within the shared LAN according to the requirements, It needs to be carried out on the basis of
database technology. For example, in engineering construction management, relevant management
personnel need to count the required materials according to relevant standards and requirements [1],
after verifying the information, the specific conditions of material consumption are entered into the
database with the help of the computer. Enterprise financial personnel can get in-depth understanding
of the enterprise’s current financial situation by collecting database material consumption information.
It can be seen that the resource sharing characteristics of computer electronic information technology
not only improve the efficiency of enterprises in engineering management to a certain extent, but also
effectively avoid excessive consumption of labour cost and time cost.

3.2. Precision management

There are many design contents of project management, including technology, safety, quality, cost,
labour and equipment. These links must be uniformly managed in accordance with relevant standards
[2], which not only increases the pressure on managers at work, but also leads to omissions in the
management process. In this case, the effective use of computer electronic information technology
plays an important role in improving the service life of the project. In this work, managers can use the
information management platform to finish related work in an orderly manner.

3.3. Intelligent management

At present, with the rapid development of society and economy, many things begin to develop towards
intelligence, including computer electronic information technology. Because this technology has a
certain anthropomorphic thinking in the application, it can deeply analyze and sort out relevant
information [3]. In the practical application process, the computer can effectively avoid the errors that
are easy to be generated by manual operations, thus improving the work efficiency to the greatest
extent.

4. Characteristics of computer engineering project management

The transition from the traditional management model to the computer-based management model is an
advanced reform measure. It's not just buying some computer equipment, but being able to manipulate
them and master them. When using computer technology, it is necessary to fully understand its
functions, so that it is possible to make the computer play a better level, solve the difficulties
encountered in the project management project, and grasp the relationship between the manager and
the controller. The management model and management system are matched with the computer
management system, which is controlled by the computer. And a management mode is controlled by a
computer, which is a special problem special treatment. But the computer management system also
needs to be controlled by a good management technician, so that the computer can play a good role,
advanced management must have advanced hardware facilities and high-capacity talents.

Traditional management is a paper plan, which is not efficient and has low work capacity, and
consumes a lot of time and money. Modern engineering projects are large and involve more people, so
they need to rely on computers to complete them, and improve efficiency, improve the quality of work,
and promote the progress of the project.
Project management is a relatively complex network system. In the process of project planning and
implementation, the project-related resources should be sorted out, and various tasks should be
improved to achieve the highest level of management, which needs to rely on the engineering database
and management database of computer technology. Therefore, it can be seen that the computer greatly
affects the progress of the project.

5. Effective application of computer application technology in project management

5.1. Application of multimedia technology in project management

With the development of computer technology, there are more and more kinds of computer software
and hardware, and the types of computer technology applied to project management have also
increased. Among them, multimedia technology has been widely used in project management. At the
present stage, the hardware facilities of computer technology in China have been fully meet the needs
of project management. Therefore, more and more engineering project management company have
begun to try to develop software facilities for computer technology. They present the contents of some
engineering project management in the form of material objects through multimedia, which greatly
improves the management efficiency of engineering projects, and enables staff to see the contents of
engineering projects more intuitively, which is very beneficial to the development of engineering
projects. However, in the application of multimedia technology, the relevant potential risks should also
be fully considered. As multimedia technology is an open software, it is have certain security risks.
Therefore, in actual use, the risk prevention should be strengthened to ensure the well implementation
of the project [4].

5.2. Application of Network Communication Platform in Engineering Project Management

Large engineering projects often require the cooperation, participation and discussion of multiple
enterprises. Only in this way can engineering projects be carried out well. Therefore, we should make
full use of computer technology, establish a network communication platform, and establish a
platform for communication when problems are found, they can be solved timely, and at the same time,
each enterprise participating in the project can express their own views and make their own
suggestions. Moreover, the network communication platform can also organize and collect
information more conveniently and quickly, and then provide timely feedback. So that the project can
be adjusted timely and effective, which makes the project management more timeliness and provides
guarantee for the successful completion of the project.
In addition, in the initial stage of the project, the establishment of the network communication
platform will enable the staff to collect and process various data and signals. At the same time, it also
has the functions of synchronous input and implementation testing. In case of any abnormal situation
of an engineering project, it can be quickly identified, which greatly improves the efficiency of the
project, and can effectively reduce the probability of accidents in the project and promote the
economic benefits of the project [5].

5.3. Using computer technology to carry out pre-management and quality management of engineering
projects
The well development of engineering projects cannot be separated from the early planning work, so in
the early planning of engineering projects, it is necessary to make full use of information technology
for comprehensive consideration, thus laying a solid foundation for the project. In the pre-planning,
the timeliness and convenience of computer technology can be used to comprehensively analyze the
project, then according to the actual situation, develop a suitable project plan. Such comprehensive

preliminary planning can greatly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the project. In addition,
computer technology can effectively manage the quality of engineering projects. Because computer
technology can effectively control the project materials, project personnel and project equipment, and
carry out supervision and management of the implementation, so that the quality of project
engineering can be optimally processed [6].

5.4. Application of Computer Technology in Risk Management of Engineering Projects

Generally, the construction period of engineering projects is relatively long, and the initial investment
cost is also very large, which leads to some risks in the construction process of the project. Therefore,
it is necessary to make reasonable use of computer technology to carry out risk management of
engineering projects and to predict risks in real time. At the same time, when risks occur, solutions can
be made in time to ensure the quality and safety of engineering projects and improve the quality of
engineering projects.

6. Conclusion
In a word, computer application technology plays an important role in engineering projects, and it
promotes the development of engineering project management. Although there are still many
problems in the project management, the problems and disadvantages will certainly be solved through
the efforts of all aspects of the society.
In engineering project management, computer application technology guarantees the quality of
engineering project. Through the analysis of the application of computer technology in engineering
management, it is concluded that the enterprise management personnel should pay attention to many
aspects if they want to further improve the application effect of information technology in engineering
management. With the help of these ways, the effect of computer application technology in project
management can be maximized, and the level of enterprise engineering management can be improved
to meet the needs of its own development, which plays an important role in promoting China’s social
economic development.
