  • Renovation of existing sports facilities or construction of temporary ones for international complex games requires a wide variety of hundreds of sub construction projects to be awarded at the same time but there are few precedents required regarding the study of tendering process required in such cases. As award of construction contracts to build sports facilities for various international complex games is a critical determinant of fate of international complex games in the initial phase, it is very critical that adequate construction tendering process bedetermined. This research is aimed to study tendering cases for renovation or construction of critical international sports facilities to enhance efficiency of facility construction and define most reasonable tendering approach to satisfy schedule constraints often associated with international complex games and contribute to improvement of international competitiveness of their host cities and propose a direction for further development. This study also provides inputs to subsequent sports events of comparable scale to minimize trial and error.

  • Since the mid-2000s, Korean large-sized construction companies have pursued in earnest to expand their business to global construction market in surroundings that domestic market have a continuous and long-term stagnation. However, during last a few years, they have experienced the serious financial loss from international projects. In the meantime, for the sound improvement of Korean construction industry, many stakeholders long for efficient early warning signals to generally monitor and track the potential risks of international projects. In this study, we introduce an International Project Risk Index (IPRI), which is derived from massive data provided by large-sized companies, and expect to provide the practitioners and decision makers as an aid to proactively cope with the change of the potential risks. The outcomes from the IPRI can be utilized to prepare a timely management strategy and to establish an appropriate government support regulation.

  • Indian construction companies have only 0.05% market share in the 3-4 trillion dollar global construction business and only two Indian construction companies figure in the ENR "Top 225 Global Contractors 2006" list. Hence, while enormous scope for growth exists, international construction experience is limited. This study explores the risks as perceived by Indian companies venturing abroad since risks in international construction differ from home market risks. Literature survey identified a number of risk factors that were evaluated by the experts, highlighting fourteen important risk factors. Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM) was used to develop a hierarchical model showing the relationships between the different risk factors, thus helping to focus on the key risks for effective risk management. The study shows that poor project management is a key risk forming the hub of the system, while political instability has maximum influence. The results of the study can be used by managers to visualise the risks in perspective and prioritise the mitigation effort.

  • Among various joint ventures, International Construction Joint Ventures (ICJVs) have emerged as a popular approach worldwide to developing large scale projects through international participation. A model, based on economic analysis and represented by several hypotheses obtained from the analysis, will be developed. Furthermore, we will empirically test the hypotheses/model using Structural Equation Model (SEM). This research is expected to explain why there exist different organizational forms for ICJVs, and to develop a framework for choosing appropriate forms with respect to various characteristics of ICJVs.

  • In these days, global construction market is speedily increasing and domestic construction companies have a chance of new contracts. In the meantime, international projects have been increasingly forced to cope with potential risks, which seriously impacted achieving the targeted time and cost. In this study, we introduce a computerized risk management system for international EPCS projects, which is constructed on the needs of practitioners and decision makers as an aid to proactively control the potential risks and to monitor continuously their status and variation. The system is called the Project Risk Management System (PRiMS) is useful for furnishing project managers with warning signals as a project is progressing and helpful for producing the total risk score and tracking risk variation.

  • Recently, Korea has achieved accumulated total value of orders of six hundred billion dollars in international construction market, and it is facing a new turning point by entering the overseas construction market. However, according to the statistics on the current internal construction market, the accumulated value of orders has been mainly obtained by plant projects in the Middle-East area. To improve international competitiveness of Korean construction industry, it is required to expand and diversify the target areas and construction business sectors. To expand markets, each construction firm should establish the expansion strategy and assess the capability which includes the strength and weakness of their firm. Therefore, this research aims to evaluate the capability of the Korean construction firms for overseas expansion. Through the research, Korean construction industry is expected to strengthen competitiveness toward the overseas markets. Furthermore, this research contributes to expanding and diversifying markets for domestic construction firms.

  • International construction market has been open to other countries, and it derives the development of our overseas construction industry quantitatively as well as qualitatively. Until now, the major companies have an absolute majority in the overseas construction market, and the small and medium enterprises have had difficulty to get a leadership in the international construction market because of the lack of the technical expertise and the capital strength. Especially in the Middle East Asia, our construction companies has touched off a boom, so our market share also has grown, which derived from the up toward ratchet oil prices and a worldwide boom in real estate development. The small and medium enterprise minority have recognition that the overseas construction market is the major company's native territory. But Data from the existing researches and many statistics indicate the most companies tend to underestimate the capacity and international competitiveness of the small and medium enterprises. As a matter of fact, hundreds of small and medium enterprise cut a conspicuous figure in overseas market. Consequently, it is indispensable to overcome the international financial crisis by revitalizing our overseas construction industry which obtains excellent results in international market. this study suggested the ways to expand overseas bonding capacity of Korean financial institution. This study proposed the Korean government to allow Construction Guarantee (former Korea Construction Financial Cooperative) to deal with foreign exchange so that Construction Guarantee will underwrite the overseas construction bond.

  • 해외 플랜트 건설시장은 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며, 국내 건설업체의 중동 플랜트 건설시장의 비중도 점점 증가하고 있다. 하지만 해외 플랜트 건설사업은 상대적으로 높은 리스크를 가지고 있으므로 해외 플랜트 건설과 관련된 리스크를 사전에 예측, 평가하여 관리하는 것이 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 해외 공사 리스크 평가 방법과 현재 해외 플랜트 공사에 참여하고 있는 전문가들의 면담조사를 토대로 해외 플랜트 건설공사의 사업 수행 과정에서 발생할 수 있는 리스크를 입찰 및 계약 단계에서 사전에 평가할 수 있는 리스크 평가 방안을 제시하였다. 또한 중동지역의 실제 프로젝트 리스크 평가 사례를 통해서 해외 플랜트 프로젝트 리스크 평가에 대한 활용성을 검토하였다.
