Total Project Cost Management System(TPCMS) was introduced with the purpose of increasing the efficiency of cost control for public construction project in 1994. In this paper, general perception of participants of the public construction project on the TPCMS was examined, and the problems in implementing the TPCMS was figured out through expert interviews and survey. Then better ways to implement the system were drawn based on the problems. To effectively manage the cost of public construction project, basically project cost should be estimated accurately in planning stage and managed based on it to have a project complete within the budget. In addition, the cost need to be managed in more systematic ways in terms of data collection and analysis, and the autonomy in managing the project cost given to the project owner needs to be expanded. Most of all, proper budget should be provided to prevent a project from delay through setting the priority of projects and proper budget allocation based on the priority.

The purposes of study is to propose a new method contract price adjustment in construction projects. The research method of this study includes a case analysis and questionnaire survey. The results of this study are as follows: 1) For improvement method of contract amount adjustment, enactment for legislation pertaining to computation methods such as military's organization through total unit cost, and price flexibility computation at the point of design modification were presented. 2) Arithmetic formulas for cases in which volume is deleted or modified below the price flexibility exemption amount or in which there is no change to quantity, at the occurrence of design modification resulting from price flexibility, were proposed.
