The construction industry is now facing a new challenge of green construction. Based on a research question of "what motivates contractors to pursue green construction", the objective of this study is to identify and discuss key characteristics and implications of green construction motivators among major contractors. The Political Economy Approach was adpoted as a main research methodology. The study demonstrated that major contractors show a high level of expectation in the future of green construction and consider economic factors as higher motivators while paying attention to social trends towards green construction. In particular, internal economic motivators were highly considered and the commitment of senior management was viewed as a key motivator.

In preparation of the increase in the domestic debts and the rise in the US interest rate, the Korean government has started to strengthen the regulation on the property market since 2017. So, it is likely that the sales in the domestic construction market would be decreased. Even in the overseas plant projects market, as there has been the continuous increase in the cost and the resulting increase in the losses, it looks hard for the large construction companies to keep their credit ratings as they are now. This study is designed to check Korean government's property policy and any possible problems caused by the overseas and domestic economic environment, which include the property market policy, interest rate, rise in the property price and lackluster sales in housing market. It showed the change in the credit ratings by finding out the sales, work capability, sales in non-governmental projects, operating profits and PF contingency liabilities. For this study, the questionnaires were sent to 30 practical experts to analyze the effect of the risk factor on the outside credit rating of large construction companies.

1951년 창립한 경남기업(주)은 1965년 국내업체 중 처음으로 해외건설면허를 취득해 현재까지 국내 건설시장은 물론, 해외건설시장 활성화를 위해 매진하는 건설업체다. IMF 당시 워크아웃이라는 위기를 슬기롭게 극복, 5년만에 워크아웃을 조기졸업 하는 저력을 보였으며 2004년 대아건설과 합병을 통해 대형 건설사로 급부상했다. 기존 국내 주택 및 토목 부문 사업비중을 줄이고 해외건설, 에너지산업, 해외자원개발 등 수익 다각화로 인해 안정적인 수익구조를 구성한 경남기업(주)은 올해 시공능력평가 17위에 안착하는 등 급변하는 건설환경에 능동적으로 대처하는 모습을 보이며 또 한 번의 도약을 시도하고 있다.

정부가 대 중소기업간 상생협력을 본격 추진하기 위해 지난해 말 동반성장위원회를 구성하면서 동반성장 정책이 활기를 띄고 있다. 올해 말에는 56개 대기업(건설사 12개 업체)의 동반성장 및 공정거래 협약 실적이 평가 된다. 이에 따라 대기업은 동반성장 협력 방안을 잇달아 내놓고 있다. 지난 4월 15일 10대 대형건설사가 공정거래 및 동반성장 협약을 체결한 것도 정부의 이러한 정책을 반영하기 위함이다. 서울시 등 일부 지자체도 상생을 위한 하도급 정책을 속속 내놓고 있다. 서울시는 하도급 문화 개선 을 위해 ${\Delta}$하도급 직불제 ${\Delta}$표준계약서 사용 ${\Delta}$주계약자 공동도급제 등 3가지 분야를 확대시행 정책 과제로 삼고 올해부터 집중 추진하기로 했다. 인천시 종합건설본부도 4월부터 하도급 대금 직불제 시행에 들어갔다. 본지는 핫이슈로 떠오르고 있는 정부의 동반성장 정책 방향 및 제도개선 현황과 서울시의 하도급 정책, 동반성장지수 평가 대상업체인 12개 건설사의 상생협력 방안에 대해 알아본다.

In the past, there were problems in managing construction due to the lack of effective communication and sharing information between a constructor and an owner during construction works. To solve those problems, several major construction companies made great efforts to get a higher productivity through the systematic management, cumulating construction know-how. As a result of the endeavor, some of those companies developed the foundation of PMIS(Project Management Information System). However, it is thought that PMIS on the construction site was not effectively used in performing construction. Therefore, through the case of contractor's management system which is being used in 1-4 out field construction site in Incheon International Airport Rail of P construction company, this paper deals with the development of system supporting to the practical work of construction site and it'll provide to be the foundation of making effective PMIS.

The aim of this study is to examine the regional features of shipbuilding-allied industries comprehensively. Inaddition, this study would offer groundwork to construct spatial networks of shipbuilding-allied industries. Relatively in short term, large modem shipbuilding firms of South Korea have developed under the national strategic support, around southeast coast region. Although small shipbuilding firms and marine equipment firms have supported regional economy, these firms have scaled down their functions and roles due to the national policy. In the long tenn, Korean shipbuilding-allied industries have limitations in stable development, because they have separated their roles. Consequently it is necessary the balanced development of large, medium, and small shipbuilding firms and linkage system with marine equipment firms for overall development of shipbuilding-allied industries. This study suggests two spatial strategy for shipbuilding-allied industries development. First, we need to construct a shipbuilding specialization area which agglomerates competent parts firms adjacent to large shipyards. Second, in national strategy, a long term strategy is required to utilize extremely synergy and external effects induced from a shipbuilding duster of southeast coast region which systematically combines shipbuilding-allied industries, universities, the government authorities, and research institutions.
