Abstract: The preconstruction planning (PCP) phase of any project is an individual stage that impacts the planning and execution of a construction project. In this stage, planners and contractors using their experience plan the project considering time, cost and quality constraints. In recent time, importance is being placed on using different tools like GIS in the preconstruction planning stage. In planning a water supply distribution scheme, an information system is needed that will help the construction planners to plan the project. Geographic information system is a computer based system that is used for storing, manipulating, and analysing large amount of data. This paper focuses on the water supply distribution scheme of a village Mahuli, in Maharashtra, India. In this paper study of application of GIS on one of the aspects of water supply preconstruction planning, i.e. distribution pipeline network, details and analysis in GRAM++ is done. The purpose of the study is to know the advantages of using GIS and achieving time effectiveness.
