In 2005, the government introduced BTL(Build-Transfer-Lease) projects as one of the methods of private investment in infrastructure. In a BTL project, a private company builds a public facility and leases it to the government to withdraw its invested capital. But there appear several problems with it due to a short period of preparation and lack of experiences. Specifically, private companies that plan to participate in this project have to take a risk since serious problems are likely to take place because of unrealistic estimation of construction costs, etc., and they finally avoid participating in this project. A case study was made over advanced countries, Japan and the United Kingdom, to find out how to resolve the problems, and rational 7 improvement method were presented from a perspective of Special Purpose Company (SPC), which could be accepted by both of SPC and government agencies. The findings of the study are expected to provide workable solutions to BTL projects from a standpoint of private companies to facilitate the rational improvement of BTL projects, and this study is ultimately expected to stimulate the active participation of SPC to make a contribution to the vitalization of domestic BTL projects.

As BTL(Build-Transfer-Lease) private investment business benchmarking PHI(Private Finance Initiative) of USA and Japan is introduces to Korea since 2005, as a part of supplying high leveled public service and early expanding required facilities for SOC, Value for Money on private investment business from treasury investment business at the beginning gets to be needed. Accordingly, this survey has been conducted in order to analyse BTL projects status, propriety of economic analysis method(VFM analysis, calculation of estimated business expenses, valuation of bidding price, etc.) by business advance phases from the viewpoint of person in charge, necessity of improvement and alternative plants. As the result of conducting cross tabulation analysis and correlation analysis by occupational group, BTL project advance phases and alternative plans for improvement, it is necessary ye prepare standardized service level against business expense and basis for calculating and evaluation operation expenses. Based on the necessity of quantitative analysis (LCC analysis) of VFM, standard for calculating management, maintenance and administration expenses is required. In addition, reliable economic valuation system considering domestic BTL environment should be setup, for business efficiency.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the problem of BTL business through the sensitivity analysis of financial model and presented efficiency business strategy when private business owner propose their business. For this, we analyzed the sensitivity of financial model after analyzed costs of the school facility construction case for each place of business. The results of this study are as follows. 1)As the results of the sensitivity of financial model, requirement-earning rate for the results of analysis was decreased average 2.28 points (0.5%) per increasing 0.10% and Construction costs and the maintenance costs were decreased average 10.73 points (2.38%), 6.22 points(1.38%) for increasing 1billion won. 2) The Problem of BTL business according to the sensitivity analysis of financial model was analyzed that the price consultation low investments, and estimation from personal consideration caused it. So, it was analyzed to increase maintenance costs is more efficient method than to increase construction costs.

In the recent years, the government pay more interested in BTL projects, this led to rapid growth of BTL projects. But the project stakeholder has encountered with some problems during initial phase. As a result, a distinct need has emerged for analysis of risk factors for BTL projects. Based on real cases, this study resulted in risk factors influencing every phases and grouped risk factors into each phase. In addition, this study also perform sensitivity analysis in order to know how risk factors affect to BTL projects. Moreover, the result of this study can be used as a tools for anyone who study or encounter the same problems in the future. The paper can be used as standards for risk assignment that occur between competent authorities and private enterprises.

The purpose of this study is to examine the problem of BTL(Build Transfer Lease) projects through comparative analysis on running costs, focusing on primary school, junior and senior high school education facilities, and then to provide useful information on the estimation of running costs by suggesting valid cost criteria. For this, eight schools from A and B consulting firms were sampled from capital region and other areas. Sampled schools were classified into four categories according to school grade, and running cost data are collected and analyzed from relative view points. The results of this study are as follows: 1) running costs which are analyzed by categories show some difference among sub-items, 2) major problems related to running cost prediction of BTL projects are revealed and improvement schemes are suggested for two groups (Owner and Project applicants).

The government abolished the existing method to calculate the construction price by the quantity take-off and pricing. It has introduced a new estimating system which uses the actual cost data on the basis of actual contract unit price. However, in the case of the current method to calculate the estimate price of BTL educational facilities, it is difficult to prepare an accurate ground for calculating unit prices due to a lack of standardized work breakdown structure (WBS) and guidelines for the detailed bidding documents. Thus, this research aims to establish WBS using the actual construction price on the basis of the actual bidding documents for the previous construction of BTL educational facilities. This specific WBS can be differentiated from the general WBS which is not suited for construction of the educational facility. It makes possible to build the construction information classification system and it helps to systemize the maintenance and repair cost items.

This paper proposes a way to a risk quantification of public sector comparator in the value-for-money test of the BTL (Build-Transfer-Lease) scheme in rail investment projects. Two principal risks that are project delay and budget increasing costs are identified and are empirically quantified with a case study of the Haman-Jinju link. The methodology suggested is expected to be a good reference for the similar research afterwards and also to help in settling down the scheme that is only an early stage.

This paper aims to suggest a validity analysis model that would be helpful for local governments considering u-City construction projects and a methodology for them to promote build-transfer-lease (BTL) u-City projects. This methodology mainly uses quantitative and qualitative analysis based on the Value For Money (VFM) designed by the Public and Private Infrastructure Investment Management Center (PIMAC) under the Korea Development Institute (KDI). BTL projects requires a large amount of capital and involves long-term investments. Therefore, multi-faceted validity analysis is required for the success of a project. This study will enumerate various factors to be considered in the pre-analysis of validity of BTL projects and suggest a methodology to verify them. A case study of a BTL project promoted by Ansan City assisted in designing this study in detail.

The BTL project, 4 years since its operation. has benchmarked the PFI Project in Japan and has been introduced. Given the evaluation step to select a preferred bidder, in a technological factor, the basic plans are corrected and complemented, whereas in a price factor, the low price bidding system is being enforced. There is concern that how to select preferred bidders and how to operate project costs during operation and management period may be problematic. Thus, in this study, using the Analytic Hierarchy Process, the method of deciding the priority to select preferred bidders in an early stage of the project and the evaluation model to evaluate the validity of BTL project expenses in process of project enforcement are established. Targeting the group composed of experts who have experiences in the BTL project. Then, the levelling of evaluation factors and grouping have been carried out as following : LCC analysis and disbursement for government including two more detailed factors.
