The operation of automated construction equipment and autonomous construction robots depends on contextual information regarding the job to be carried out. Therefore, robots as well as equipment require a task-based construction site control system. Such a system also provides some advantages for construction managers. However, some prerequisites must be met prior to implementation. This paper positions the construction site control system concept in the current and future task management on construction sites and compares approaches from autonomous intralogistics with those of the construction sector. The paper then examines the required functionality of a construction site control system in detail and closes with the demonstration of an exemplary construction site control system (CS²).     «
