The government introduced the comprehensive evaluation bidding system with the goal of pursuing the best value and the global standard in 2016. However, for the evaluation criteria on the construction evaluation reflected to the comprehensive evaluation bidding system, the problems of the objectivity insufficiency, the inclusion of multiple subjective evaluation items, and the irrationality of the weight for each evaluation item are continue to be presented. The central office group, the local government, the relevant industry, and the expert group share recognition, but the solution is not derived. Hence, the major evaluation items to be improved were derived with the characteristics analyzed to secure the objectivity of the construction evaluation. For the analysis method, the standard deviation and the Fleiss Kappa analysis method were used by utilizing the characteristics that the construction evaluation criteria consist of all 4-point measures (good, average, insufficient, and poor). According to the result, the 10 evaluation items of the total 25 construction evaluation items were derived as the evaluation items to be improved. It was found in the analysis on the major characteristics of the derived evaluation items that the qualitative evaluation criteria such as 'Very Suitable' and 'Suitable' were commonly included in the detailed evaluation guidelines. Hence, as far as the future construction evaluation standards are concerned, the qualitative evaluation standards are sublated, and the improvement should be made mainly for the quantitative evaluation criteria enabling the objectivity assurance.

The government has been implementing the preliminary feasibility study to examine previously a plan of the national R&D program submitted by each government ministry or institution and decide whether to reflect its budget. However, although R&D investments obviously have a different contribution depending on the different types of project, the current system applies the average R&D contribution rate to whole industry across the board in order to estimate benefits of the creating value from the R&D activity. This system in turn will cause a distorted result in the economic feasibility analysis. Therefore, this paper conducts an empirical analysis on the ICT R&D contribution for the creating value added, on behalf of all industries, through the growth accounting method and explores an applicability of the differential R&D contribution rate as an alternative by comparing to the existing R&D contribution rate. The result of this paper shows the ICT R&D contribution rate is 48.2%, and we can find out there is a significant difference compared to the existing R&D contribution rate. In light of this, it is necessary to adopt carefully the differentiated R&D contribution rate considering project characteristics.

The construction industry has the most safety accidents of any of the domestic industries. Special care must be taken because disasters in the construction industry lead to social problems caused by huge property losses and casualties. As a result, there is a growing awareness of disasters occurring in the construction industry, and government departments are tightening their regulations on safety management. In particular, the OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Agency) focuses on the expansion of protection targets and the clarification of responsibility in the full amendment OSHA. As a result, a study that focuses on the client's responsibility for safety management is needed. In this study, the project performance capability assessment of construction project management contractors, which is being carried out with uniform assessment criteria without considering the characteristics of the construction project, is considered and all the amendments to the OSHA are considered, and the factors were derived for improvement measures.

This paper evaluates the effects of privatization and deregulation on the firm-specific efficiency and total factor productivity (TFP) growth in the Korean and Japanese railways. Using a stochastic frontier approach and a generalized translog functional form, the paper specifies the equation system consisting of a multiproduct variable cost function and input share equations which is estimated with Zellner's iterative seemingly unrelated regression and the corrected least squares method. The Korean and Japanese railway firms are assumed to produce three outputs (Shinkansen passenger-kilometers, incumbent railway passenger-kilometers, ton-kilometers of freight) using three input factors (labor, fuel, maintenance and rolling stock). A monetary value of the ways and fixed installations held by the railroad firm is also included as a quasi-fixed input. The empirical results indicate that the average estimate of cost inefficiency is 2.57% for the total sample and on the average, JNR and JR Kyushu are found to be worst efficient while the most efficient railway firm in the sample is JR West. Also the cost efficiency levels of seven JRs have been improved after the reform and privatization of JNR. The findings also indicate that TFP growth of the privately-owned JRs are higher than those of the government-owned KNR and JNR. Three-island JRs and JR Freight have slightly higher TFP growth than Honshu JRs as well. Thus, the results suggest that managerial autonomy and increased competition via deregulation have improved efficiency and TFP growth.

The purpose of this study is to show a course development of the marine leisure sport policy in Korea. The preceding researches and the analysis on the actual conditions on marine leisure sport in Korea were conducted for this research. And analyzing the obstacle and development factors in marine leisure sport, the conclusions intended to provide the preliminary data on the marine leisure industry are as follows: First, as policy-based problems, there will be needs for the public perception improvement in the marine culture caused by the lack of publicity, the reflection reinforcement of the national policy on the marine leisure industry, the prevention of the overlapping investment for the national resources development in the marine industry and marine leisure sport complexes, and the reinforcement of the close networks with the developed countries. Second, as human-based problems, there will be needs for the new organization of the specialty agencies involved in the marine leisure industry field, the nurture of the capable specialists and the reinforcement and nurture of TF team for the infrastructure industry. Third, as facility-based problems, there appeared to be the expansion of the SOC related to the marine leisure, the ease of the laws and regulations for the development of the marine leisure facilities, the prevention of the thoughtless development caused by close cooperation system with the local government. Fourth, as law and institution-based problems, there appeared to be the abolishment of the regulation-centered laws involved in them, the prevention of the legal and institutional confusion caused by policy confusion. Fifth, as industry-based problems, there must be the expansion of the domestic supply and demand, the reinforcement of parts industry and the nurture of the license system for the mechanics on the vessels and the engines.

Since marine accidents cause large-scale damage to human lives and the marine environment, prompt response measures are crucial including salvage operations for ships and cargoes along with lifesaving operations. In Korea, marine salvage operations are mainly dependent on global salvage companies in case of large-scale marine accidents due to lack of national capacity for marine salvage. The purpose of this study was to suggest public measures for the promotion of the private salvage industry by identifying the current situation and problems in the domestic marine salvage industry. As a result of the study, the measures of setting up a dedicated agency to support the domestic salvage industry and the function of the dedicated agency were identified and presented. In addition, the main points of the bill of "Law on the Promotion of the Domestic Salvage Industry" were presented to support and promote the salvage industry. To prepare the draft bill of law, relevant domestic laws and international conventions were examined to define the terms and regulations. Based on the legislation enacted as a result of this study, relevant ministries should focus on the legislative process. Legislation can be pursued by competent ministries in cooperation with the private sector and academia. It is expected that this study will help in the development of the domestic marine salvage industry and enhance the national response capacity for marine accidents in Korea.

This study investigates the limitations of blockchain technology and the ways to improve it by using Delphi technique. Limit factors and improvement measures are classified into technology, service, and legal system. First, from a technical point of view, lack of standardization of the technology, insufficiency of integration, lack of scalability, unclear cancellation or correction policy, excessive cost of transaction verification, insufficient personal information protection and not enough to respond to hacking defense were the limiting factors. In order to improve these, the followings; ensuring standardization, securing integration and scalability, establishing cancellation of each applicable data, establishment of correction policy, efficiency of verification cost, the protection of personal information and countermeasure against hacking are provided. The related technology development and countermeasures must be established to effectively introduce the blockchain technology to the market. Second, in the early stage of blockchain service, it showed lack of utilization of the blockchain, security threat, shortage of skilled workers, and lack of legal liability. As a solution to these problems, it is necessary to suggest various applications, against security threat, training professional manpower, and securing legal responsibility. It should also provide a foundation for providing institutionally stable services. Third, from as legal system point of view, inadequate legal compliance, lack of relevant regulation, and uncertainty in the regulation were the limiting factors. Therefore establishing a legal system, which is the most important area for activating the service, should be accompanied by the provision of legal countermeasures, clearness of regulations and measures to be taken by relevant governmental authorities. This study will contribute as a reference for a research, related to the blockchain.
