Intangible assets for construction engineering consulting firms are very important for their valuation, because engineering consulting is typical knowledge-based business which creates value based on technical expertise and human resources. This paper presents the intangible asset classification model based on the concept of value creation in construction engineering consulting firm and proposes intangible asset valuation methodology using System Dynamics and survey data. Utilization of the valuation methodology presented in this paper would increase the public awareness of intangible assets in construction engineering consulting firm and, thus, contribute to the growth of the engineering consulting industry by realistic and accurate valuation of intangible assets.

The cooperative relation between construction engineering firms and design subcontractors is essential to establish design collaboration system. So, this study is initiated with providing a strategic cooperation scheme between construction engineering firms and design subcontractors. A number of literatures related to the design process for engineering firms were reviewed in order to investigate the design collaboration system. A questionnaire survey was peformed to collect and analyze the expert opinion on the current design collaboration system for engineering firms. It is expected that the cooperation scheme can be utilized to improve the cooperative relation between construction engineering firms and design subcontractors.

Due to the downturn in the local construction business, entry into the overseas markets has been regarded as one of the core tasks of the building sector and the government. Thus, entry into overseas markets, not only by large and middle-standing enterprises, but also by small and medium sized enterprises, has recently become a major construction policy. Therefore, this study identified and evaluated overseas construction support policies in the field of construction engineering, ranked them as the policies for developing market development funds, fostering and educating expert workers, and supporting the provision of information on winning orders. Through these policy assessment results, the study proposed improvement measures from the government and from the business side. As for the government viewpoint, a measure of providing information suited to engineers in design companies, project manager (PM), construction manager (CM), a measure of producing skillful workers through the expansion of education support policies, and the promotion of specialized overseas workforce in the construction engineering sector were proposed. In the construction engineering industry, this study suggested measures for securing global expert manpower, sharing performance of overseas construction market development project, strengthening construction project management capacity, and strengthening risk management.

Currently, construction engineering industry of high value and rapid growing has been viewed as a future oriented industry. Thus, compared to other industries, its analysis system for business trend seems insufficient. This research has developed a business survey index model targeted for construction engineering industries, and business trends for 4/4 quarter of 2011 as well as 1/4 quarter of 2012 were surveyed as important traits were analyzed. Business Survey Index of Construction Engineering has been constructed in form of an index in order to accurately judge different economic states of the industry such as funding areas, human resources, payability, ordering scale, status of domestic and foreign markets, Difficulties in Management, and improvements in policies. In the future, CEBSI will not only be applied on the construction engineering industry, but it will also be used as the economic state of all construction industries as well as the prospect data. Thus, it will be utilized as basic resources that can establish systematic and accurate policies.
