Abstract :
A new information mapping approach permits a procedures system database to support project-specific procedures based upon a master process. With this approach the generic steps in a procedures system database are project-specific when viewed by users. This approach is implemented by modifying commercially available procedures database software (DocuStructure). In addition to describing the information mapping approach, it is shown how the database structures have been modified to support a master process
