"시대적 흐름에 맞게 환경분야관련 투자를 적극적으로 검토하고 있으며 현재 해외친출을 위한 기반을 모색하고 있습니다. 특히 유니온 자체 브랜드로 해외시장을 진출하는 것 보다는 글로벌 건설사들과 협력하여 해외프로젝트에 적극 참여하고 있습니다." (주)유니온의 강병호 대표는 기업의 적극 투자와 해외시장 개척이 환경산업의 발전을 기대할 수 있다고 강조했다. (주)유니온은 1964년 백시멘트 생산을 시작으로 희소 광산물을 개발해 오다 1988년부터 환경사업에 진출했다. 다음은 유니온의 강병호 대표와의 인터뷰 내용이다.

This study investigates the impact of international oil price fluctuations on overseas construction orders secured by domestic and foreign companies. The analysis employs statistical data spanning the past 20 years, encompassing international oil prices, overseas construction orders from domestic firms, and new overseas construction orders from the top 250 global construction companies. The correlation between these variables is assessed using correlation coefficients(R), determination coefficients(R²), and p-values. The results indicate a strong positive correlation between international oil prices and overseas construction orders. The correlation coefficient between domestic overseas construction orders and oil prices is found to be 0.8 or higher, signifying a significant influence. Similarly, a high correlation coefficient of 0.76 is observed between oil prices and new orders from leading global construction companies. Further analysis reveals a particularly strong correlation between oil prices and overseas construction orders in Asia and the Middle East, potentially due to the prevalence of oil-related projects in these regions. Additionally, a high correlation is observed between oil prices and orders for industrial facilities compared to architectural projects. This suggests an increase in plant construction volumes driven by fluctuations in oil prices. Based on these findings, the study proposes an entry strategy for navigating oil price volatility and maintaining competitiveness in the overseas construction market. Key recommendations include diversifying project locations and supplier bases; utilizing hedging techniques for exchange rate risk management, adapting to local infrastructure and market conditions, establishing local partnerships and securing skilled local labor, implementing technological innovations and digitization at construction sites to enhance productivity and cost reduction The insights gained from this study, coupled with the proposed overseas expansion strategies, offer valuable guidance for mitigating risks in the global construction market and fostering resilience in response to international oil price fluctuations. This approach is expected to strengthen the competitiveness of domestic and foreign construction firms seeking success in the international arena.

전세계적으로 기후변화에 따른 가용 수자원의 부족과 물 재해가 증가하고 있으며, 이에 따른 수자원 및 물산업의 중요성이 강조되고 있다. 또한 세계 수자원 시장이 점차 확대될 것으로 전망되어 공공기관 및 국내기업은 해외 시장 진출을 위한 다양한 사업을 진행하고 있다. 해외 수자원산업의 진출을 위해서는 해당 국가의 수자원 현황파악과 수자원개발 계획에 대한 면밀한 분석이 필요하며, 물수지 영향을 검토하기 위한 타당성 조사가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 아시아 개발도상국의 수자원개발 계획과 특성을 비교하고 물수지 분석을 위한 자료의 가용성을 평가하고자 한다. 대상지역은 아시아 개발도상국인 3개 국가(베트남, 이란, 파키스탄)를 선정하였으며, 각 국가의 수자원개발 계획의 특징을 분석하였다. 우리나라 사례와 비교하기 위해 국가수자원 장기종합계획과 국가 간 이수 및 치수부문별 계획의 차이점과 특성을 분석하였으며, 국가별 수자원계획에 활용한 수요 및 공급부문별 자료 특성을 비교하였다. 본 연구결과는 해외 수자원산업 진출을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 물수지 분석 및 평가를 통해 수자원개발 가능성을 정량적으로 제시하고자 한다.

New town development project which has manifold operations is usually on a large scale and its spin-off spreads widely. Although international new town development market is widely increasing, new town development market in Korea is now decreasing. Thus, Korean public new town development company which has a lot of business experiences in local new town development market is now facing the necessity of making a foray. This study had a Focus Group Interview with people who experienced in international construction market to set up the core factors of international new town development market. After that, Importance Performance Analysis and Content Analysis were performed with questionnaire to determine the present condition of Korean public new town development company.

The project management information system (PMIS) has recently been developed by using the information technology(IT) in order to implement advanced information management technology to construction industry in Korea. The PMIS has been applied not only to domestic construction projects, but also to some overseas projects executed by Korean construction companies. This study was performed to develop the PMIS that is tailored to the US construction IT market. It has been monopolized by the US-based IT companies, but other companies are recently emerging with competitive technology and market strategy. As a preceding study, existing commercially available systems were analyzed, and the required features of the PMIS were identified by analyzing the core elements of contract, process and cost management about construction projects in the US. Then, the PMIS was developed based on the aforementioned analysis results. The system includes the document management module with an internal electronic approval system, the cost-plus-based automatic labor cost calculation module, and the progress management module to support the integrated project cost management. In addition, the functionality of the developed system was verified by experts about construction management in the US via questionnaire survey. The developed PMIS, in this study, is expected to be applied not only to the US construction IT market as a system specialized for the US construction industry, but also to other oversea markets in the future.
