Since a government policy greatly affects markets and firms, an evaluation on government's policies is recognized as a critical issue. In Korea, two major policy plans on CM(Construction Management) include the Construction Industry Promotion Plan and the Construction Technology Promotion Plan from which Government's CM policies can be understood. The objective of the study is to analyze and discuss CM firm's perception and evaluation toward the Government's CM policies of the two plans based on the Gap analysis. The paper identified that the CM firms perceive that the Government's CM policies properly deal with key issues of the industry. However, they evaluate that the execution of the policies has been overall under-performed. As a way forward, the Government needs to improve on the execution plan and performance measurement rather than to develop new policy agenda.

Since construction management(CM) was recognized as a formal procurement route by law in 1995, it is interesting to observe the trend of its increasing adoption. Particularly in the public sector, local government clients more adopted the CM Procurement route than central government clients. The objective of this paper is to investigate and analyse the motivation of local government clients in selecting the CM procurement route. It is important to understand such motivation for achieving a better understanding of public client's CM needs and for promoting CM business in the public sector.

Recently, the application of construction management system is being increased and various research activities by each specific field are going on many universities and research institutes. It is necessary to understand the latest research trends by each subject for keeping up excellent products in CM field. This study suggests a subject breakdown structure for classifying detailed technologies of CM field. And over 2,000 domestic and international papers in the last five years are analyzed for analogizing research trends by each subject. The analyzed results include research trends by year and strong and weak fields by each research subject of CM technology. Finally, this study suggests an improved countermeasure for guaranteeing sustainable research activation in CM field.

Construction managers who are placed on the top of the construction production organization should exhibit its best knowledges concerning all aspects and control related members at every position properly. In case of CM firms in developed countries, they are equipped with a practical system of technology and management knowledge, and efficiently use the knowledge not only for novices but also experts. However, the domestic CM firms which are now at the lower level than those in developed country are not supported with the sufficient and systematic knowledge for CM tasks due to various reasons. Therefore, the objective of this study is to suggest the direction and strategy for the development of an experts-knowledge management system to enhance the construction productivity at the viewpoint of CM firms which conduct, manage and supervise various tasks of construction projects. Domestic CM firms would play a great role to enhance productivity and secure competitive advantage of project management as much as the firms in developed countries if experts-knowledge and information are supported by a computerized system.

Construction management system has been needed to be anchored and revitalize in these days, since it was entered into a domestic market. We could consider application of CM services as a challenge of construction project system and a way to get to an advanced nation in construction field. Application of CM services could be possible in public projects by a regime. However, in case of private construction projects, it is hard to apply it without understanding of substantial necessity and propriety. so in this study, we find a application method of CM services to private small-midium construction projects, and make CM services item table of CM services for revitalization by examining the cases that applied to in private small-medium construction projects.

The construction liability type CM has been introduced in the form of a pilot project through public institutions since 2017 since it was introduced in the term of construction responsibility type construction project management in the Basic Law of Construction Industry in 2011 with the aim of improving the constitution of the Korean construction industry and strengthening global competitiveness. Through the introduction of construction-responsible CM, the government intends to change the paradigm of the overall construction industry, including design and construction, construction costs, disputes between stakeholders, and transparency of business. In this regard, the study aims to compare and analyze the evaluation methods on the bidding guide that public institutions (LH) are currently using to select companies in order to lay the foundations for successful construction of construction-responsible CM ordering methods.

The structure of construction management service in the Construction Technology Management Act has changed recently. The new Construction Technology Promotion Act becomes effective to support and promote the development of related construction industries and construction technology for domestic and overseas markets. The purpose of research is to analyze the main contents of Construction Technology Promotion Act and to investigate corporate status, problems, and issues. The research is conducted to improve as reorganization of the CM service system based on the interviews with experts. Accordingly the research is to derive countermeasures of CM enterprises. The research results are presented in the following categories of contract awarding, project management, human resource management, general administration and staff education management as countermeasures of enterprises.

The construction management has been applied for the first time in South Korea on the New Catholic Medical Center. The construction of the project has been controlled and managed by the CMr, as Client's agent from the very beginning stage of construction when the block plan is being established by the Contractor's design consultant. As CMr generally gets involved in the project throughout the entire construction phases on behalf of the Client, Parsons Brinckerhoff has been delivering high quality solutions that satisfy the Client's requirements in Pre-construction stage and also brought practical and innovative engineering solutions in a time and cost effective method. The objective of this case study is to describe works executed by CMr in Pre-construction stage ; and, analyze the positive effects by applying CM to the project. Therefore, it is anticipated that CM procedure might be introduced and adapted to the up-coming hospital construction projects.

As the construction industry gets specialized and complicated gradually, the number of participating organizations increased, and also the necessity of construction management(CM) is getting bigger because construction scale is becoming bigger. However, in spite of the increase in necessity, its activation through performance measurement and evaluation is very insufficient compared with advanced countries. Therefore, a checklist for CM by construction stage using AHP method in the current study is for efficient CM for successful completion of a project by dividing CM affairs by construction stage and checking performance degree by stage. If the CM checklist by construction stage, the final result of the study, is used by all the parties concerned such as construction managers, orders, designers, constructor, etc., it will be possibile to improve work efficiency of project management and produce a final outcome corresponding to the goals of a project.

The purpose of this study is to analyze CM effects between traditional and owner CM types according to project delivery methods in private projects. The research method of this study includes case studies and survey from construction management experts. The results of this study are as follows: 1)The owner CM type is proved to be much more effective than traditional method in various management function areas. 2)Planning, design, and quality management areas are proved to be very strong in the case of owner CM type.
