Despite a quantitative increase in the export of small and medium sized businesses due to various policies supporting export that have been continually promoted by the government, the majority of export growth has been centered around conglomerates. As research has shown that export companies are superior in terms of job creation and growth compared to domestic companies, the conversion of domestic companies to export companies will not only result in job creation and increase in exports, but it will also enable the improvement of such companies. It is therefore important to support the export of small and medium sized businesses and maintain their status as export companies with supporting policies. The purpose of this study is to analyze the present state of the export environment of Korean and foreign small and medium sized businesses in order to elicit ideas for establishing strategies for the promotion of export and maintaining the status as an export company.

국가 발주 공사는 3월 1일, 지방자치단체 발주 공사는 3월 9일 예정가격을 작성하는 사업부터 표준시장단가 제도가 적용된다. 대한설비건설협회(회장 이상일)를 비롯한 건설관련 유관단체에서는 실적공사비의 불합리한 공사비 산정 기준 및 운영관행에 대해 폐지 건의를 지속적으로 해왔다. 정부는 이같은 건의를 받아들여 지난해 12월 17일 실적공사비 제도개선을 위한 공청회를 개최하고 개선안을 발표했으며, 이번 계약예규 개정을 통해 개선됐다. 이에 따라 실적공사비 제도를 대체하는 새로운 공공공사비 산정 방식인 표준시장단가 제도가 지난 3월 1일부터 시행에 들어감에 따라 기획재정부는 국가계약예규를, 행정자치부는 지방계약예규를 개정해 각각 지난 3월 1일과 3월 5일 공포하고 시행에 들어갔다. 각 개정 계약예규는 실적공사비의 명칭이 표준시장단가로 변경됨에 따라 용어를 수정했고, 실적공사비 제도 적용배제 범위를 신설했다. 또한 적용배제 공사범위는 300억원 미만 공사 중 100억원 미만 공사는 실적공사비(표준시장단가) 적용을 폐지하고, 100억원 이상부터 300억원 미만 공사는 2016년 12월 31일까지 한시적으로 적용하지 않는다. 정부는 100억원~300억원 공사에 대한 '실적공사비 적용 배제제도' 연장 여부를 2016년 하반기에 실적공사비 현실화 수준 등을 평가하여 재검토할 예정이다. 한편, 표준시장단가 제도는 공사비를 산정할 때 현행 계약단가 외에도 시공단가와 입찰단가 등 다양한 시장 거래가격을 반영하는 제도로, 지난 1월 22일 국가정책조정회의를 거쳐 확정된 '공공건설 공사비 적정성 제고방안' 후속조치의 일환으로 공공공사비 예정가격 산출방식의 하나인 실적공사비제도를 개선한 것이다.

This paper tried to find how the characteristics of purchasing items would have influence on the relational e-procurement. The characteristics of purchasing items include the importance and the complexity of purchasing items. In order to define these characteristics, this paper reviewed various literatures about purchasing strategies. The empirical analysis through the multi-nominal logistic regression shows that the importance of items has influence on relational e-procurement, while the complexity of purchasing process has little influence. And also, the relational e-procurement through EDI as a long term buying relationship is being converted toward the exchange through purchasing sites.

Any attempt which requires banks to consider non-documentary conditions would destroy autonomy principle and increase the risks of the bank in L/C transactions. Therefore, non-documentary conditions are disregarded in the letter of credit. This provision was first introduced in UCP500, but later, ICC Position Paper No.3 added that if L/C requires documents related to non-documentary conditions, it cannot be disregarded. While the language in UCP600 is basically the same as that in UCP500, there is a difference between the two in that the former disregards the documents related to non-documentary conditions even if they are required by L/C. However, it should be remembered that international standard banking practice does not disregard all of non-documentary conditions. It recognizes the validity of some non-documentary conditions which it is not feasible to change into documentary conditions. That is, such non-documentary conditions as can be determined from an index specified in the guarantee or identified from the issuing bank's own records or their normal operations are recognized as valid in legal cases. ISP98 and UR00758 do not consider these as non-documentary conditions. The applicant should be cautious not to include non-documentary conditions in their applications.

In December 2012, the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs and Ministry of Knowledge Economy held a commission and distributed a standardized logistics contract between the shipper and the logistics companies in order to spread and to promote contract standardization. With such background in place, this study examines the leading research on different types and attributions in present logistics contracts in order to propose guidelines for creating contract clauses that would lead to a win-win relationship among the parties involved in the logistics outsourcing relationships. This study further compares and contrasts the concreteness of local and international logistics contracts through case studies, and provides practical thought-provoking points on concretization of clauses on potential risks and additional expenses for local logistics companies when signing logistics contracts. Firstly, the composition and contents of both local and international logistics contracts are similar in the way that both deal with the basic principles between the concerned parties such as the following: contract terms, validity, scope of work, operational procedures, payment terms, and dispute resolutions. Secondly, for flexibility of potential dispute resolution, both logistics contracts define the definition of dispute and follow the classical contractual approach of dispute resolution through third-party arbitration. Thirdly, compared to local contracts, international logistics contracts provide more concretized and specific clauses on the occurrence of potential risks and hazards; on the other hand, compared to international logistics contracts, it seemed that local contracts contained more clauses in favor of the shipper. This research then suggests ideas to eliminate the classic tradition - logistics companies enduring the damages that occur as a result of the structural differences between the shipper and the logistics companies - through efforts to actively negotiate in advance the predictable problems and risks and by reflecting the mutually agreed points in the contract, and further offers guidelines on contract concretization for distribution of standardized logistics contracts in the future.
