The construction industry is an important economic sector. But losses according to produced defects during the construction execution are enormous. The digitalisation in the construction industry is growing and has a great potential to improve execution. By now, digital methods like BIM are primarily used in the planning phase. In the construction execution, especially in the management of qualities are analogous or documentoriented systems state of the art. These systems usually focus on the management and correction of defects. The monitoring of construction quality, including the prevention or detection of defects, is neglected. The following paper will overview past and current research activities in quality management in construction execution by a systematic literature review. This review enables further research and improves research activities lasting.
