As domestic construction investment has been gradually reduced, the issue of expanding overseas CM market has increased. Strengthening CM capability from the view point of project life-cycle is required in overseas CM market. However, current regulations institutionally force public CM services to focus on the construction phase. Therefore, Korean CM firms can hardly have the opportunities for accumulating technical competitiveness especially for pre-construction phase. Result of this study shows that the total efforts in terms of man-hours for the construction phase is found to be more than 78 percent in domestic public CM projects. In this context, this study proposes the policies and tasks for improving 'rigid man-hour placement', 'unreasonable CM fee standards', 'CM firm selection method', 'unreasonable business scope decision', and 'evaluation of owner's project management capability' in order to improve domestic CM Industry as well as to expand overseas CM market successfully.

Due to the decreasing of Korean Construction market situation, recently a lot of medium & small size contractors, engineering firms and consulting firms are extending their business area to overseas market. To compare with 80${\sim}$90's situation at that time only Contractor provide service to overseas but in recent, there are number of Design, CM/PM and other consulting services which provide service to overseas. With this figures, the number of nation also increased from middle east and South east asian area to central asia and african nations and among them Kazakhstan has became as new market for the construction industry based on it oil money and up stream of real estimate market. Based on this fact, we will explain one of our recent project case for PM service in Almaty, Kazakhstan to show others who have interest to do business in their.

Although the CM(construction management) market in Korea has shown rapid growth, unlike other market sectors, there has been lack of a system by which the economy trend of the CM market can be analyzed. The objective of the paper is to analyse and identify key characteristics of the CM market as of the third quarter of 2010 by using the CMBSI(Construction Management Business Survey Index) which was proposed in the previous study. In the paper, the CMBSI is used as the main index along with other five supplementary indices. The use of the CMBSI can contribute to enhancing the understanding of CM market situation and prospect, and also to providing information for CM policy and regulations.

It is related to launch the CM market and to increase the profit and entire ability in company that is enforcing the ability of construction management in large-scaled construction company. According to the CM market in U.S, CM market is increased with competing to the companies, that is E&C, general contractor, design firm, specialized CM firm. Also domestic market is similar to US market. In this situation, large-scaled construction companies are filled with construction management ability for competing with foreign companies and domestic CM firms. This paper suggests how to enforce the construction management ability through education, and shows the detailed education strategy considered the fields, divisions and positions.

The purpose of this study is to develop a size information providing model which is easy recognition and utilization for customer. This study also implemented web page to apply the size-informational model. Web page implemented using Apache Web Server and JAVA client-side scripting. Research result on the actual condition of fashion electronic commerce, most of the firms are used the old named same with period of 1980. On the same named-code, they are used different sizing systems by firms or items. Size interval is used 2~5 cm, different by firms. In the size information, is provided only named-code(55, 66 etc.) or garment size, and is confusing whether the marked is body size or garment size. Many of the marked size information were wrong. The sizing system of KS K5001(2009) is not used well. These problems are increased a lose customer and firm by return, exchange, mending-cost, stock, etc. Therefore, the problems should be improved by providing correct and detailed information of size and garment, as well as standardization of sizing systems based on KS K5001.

Recently there has been insignificant growth in the Korean construction management (CM) market, in comparison to the previous year. However, despite stagnation or even decreasing growth trends, the number of domestic companies participating in the CM market has increased rapidly. As follows, market movements of CM despite trending in stagnant growth or decrease, the market has been increasing firms which entry the market. The reasons for such dynamic change must be examined first, in order to facilitate analysis of its competitive structure. This study aims to examine the market competition structure and analyze the reason for proliferation of companies in the sick CM market. This study employs market concentration ratio and DEA-based Malmquist productivity indices to analyze the competitive structure of the CM market. Results reveal that the CM market has been monopolized by a few companies, but this is gradually changing. In addition, these companies were not productive, but there has been a gradual increase in the productivity index. Therefore, this study, which provides the direction index of the CM market, has implications for all major stakeholders in this market.

This study aims to help understanding on design of basic pattern of shirt collars and to suggest schemes to raise completeness of shape by reviewing problems shown in finished products after sewing. From March 2009 to August 2009, 12 patterns for education and firms were collected centering on basic shirt collar form respectively. There are four problems generally raised from a completed shirt collar. In case of overlapping shirt collar on front neck point, the sewing point of shirt collar should be drawn at front neck point of collar band at a distance of about 0.2~0.3cm, and the center front of band and one of bodice should be arranged in a straight line. In case of the problem about right and left length difference of shirt collar, it is raised by closing so the problem was solved by prolonging about 0.2 cm of the center front of left collar. It was evaluated that adjusting notch point when sewing would be more rational solution than solving something on patterns for distance difference problem of shirt collar between right and left part at center front. And a problem about getting loose of front garment between collar band below and the first button was also raised. It was designed 0.2cm cut of collar band. Around basic shirt collar form, above mentioned solutions are applied to the patterns for education and manufacture experimental clothing. So as a result of sensory evaluation, generally good ratings on all items were received.

The domestic CM business market has continued to grow, but its size is relatively small yet in comparison with the total size of the domestic construction industry. Evaluation of CM projects was conducted through questionnaire surveys. Both clients and CM firms showed positive satisfaction levels. Nevertheless, the clients' satisfaction levels were relatively low in safety management, cost management, and document and information management. Superior areas of CM tasks were time management and recovery scheduling, quality control and technical instruction, and design value engineering. On the other hand, inferior areas of CM tasks were claim analysis and dispute resolution, cost estimation, and life cycle costing. Both entities have agreed with the positive effects of CM involvement in terms of cost saving, time reduction, quality improvement, and safety incidents prevention to at least 0~5% extent.

Production Improvement Method in TOC consists of five steps, but it is very difficult for most firms to implement it because it lacks the detailed methods at each step. This paper suggests some of detailed methods to implement the TOC. In the first step, computer simulation is used to identify the constraints in production lines. Subsequently, ASP, AUT, and CM calculation are defined for the second step, which are helpful to exploit the company's constraints. We also suggest the OEE method to effectively exploit the constraints of production lines in the factory. Finally the TOC/OEE procedure is suggested to optimize the investment in the fourth step. As an illustrative example, we introduce a case of a wafer manufacturer to adopt the suggested methods. The benefits of implementating the suggested methods are addressed in the framework of the balanced scorecard.

A Previous ERP studies came up with a number of critical success factors which would be worth referencing at the time of ERP implementation. However, we have not found much work describing the relationship between ERP implementation approaches and ERP effectiveness. We are strongly confident that it is effective to show these managers 'how firms approach' would greatly influence the outcome of BRP endeavor. In this regards, this study aims to show this strong tie empirically. Especially, we are interested in showing why re-engineering efforts ought to be taken prior to or simultaneously with, the ERP implementation. Our main concern was whether BPR efforts were taken with respect to ERP implementation and what roles managers or If managers have taken with respect to both BPR and ERP. In order to Present a more detail Picture of ERP implementation in Korea's S&M enterprise, we further had an intensive case study.
