Maximizing the profitability and minimizing the duration of construction projects in extreme weather regions is a challenging objective that is essential for project success. An optimization model is presented herein for the time-profit trade-off analysis of construction projects under extreme weather conditions. The model generates optimal/near optimal schedules that maximize profit and minimize the duration of construction projects in extreme weather regions. The computations in the model are organized into: (1) a scheduling module that develops practical schedules for construction projects, (2) a profit module that computes project costs (direct, indirect, and total) and project profit, and (3) a multi-objective module that determines optimal/near optimal trade-offs between project duration and profit. One example is used to show the impact of extreme weather on construction time and profit. Another example is used to show the model's ability to generate optimal trade-offs between the time and profit of construction projects under extreme weather conditions.

직접시공이나 하도급시공은 건설산업기본법에 의해 정한 시행령에 따라 시공하는 것이 원칙이나 직접시공이나 하도급시공시 수익성을 비교하여 이익 창출을 극대화하는 방향으로 의사결정이 된다. 이 연구에서는 민간공사 사례를 바탕으로 직접시공과 하도급시공의 공사원가와 수익성을 비교분석하였다. 자료 수집은 S건설에서 2002년과 2003년에 공사한 근린생활 및 단독주택을 토대로 하였다. 공사건수의 사례는 직접시공과 하도급시공 각각 3건의 공사에 의한 평균비율 값에 의하여 비교분석하였다. 이 연구의 사례를 분석한 결과, 공급가액 대비 매출총이익에 대한 수익률은 하도급시공이 직접시공 보다 1.3% 높은 수익률을 올린 것으로 분석되었다. 영업이익에 대한 수익률은 하도급시공이 직접시공보다 2.3% 높은 수익률을 올린 것으로 분석되었다. 마지막으로 하도급시공(영업이익률 11.7%)이 직접시공 공사에 대해 4대 보험료 차감후의 최종 영업 이익률이 4.4% 더 많이 발생한 것으로 분석되었다. 그러므로 건설회사는 하도급을 주는 것이 수익률이 높다는 것을 알 수 있고, 노무자 관리 또한 용이한 것으로 나타났다.

기업 존재의 목적은 정당한 이윤창출을 통해 지속적으로 성장 발전하는 것이다. 건설기업의 경우도 예외일 수 없다. 그러나 최근 정부의 강력한 부동산 대책이 분양가 상한제와 분양원가 공개로 이어지는 과정에서 건설기업의 '폭리(暴利)'에 대한 시민단체의 주장이 강하게 대두되어 왔다. 한 산업 또는 기업의 적정 이윤 또는 폭리 수준을 계량적인 수치로 정의한다는 것은 사실상 불가능하다. 본 연구의 목적은 국내 건설기업의 이윤 현황을 다양한 이익률 관점에서 조명하고 이를 타(他) 산업분야와 비교 분석하여 국내 건설기업의 이익률 실태와 특징을 도출하는데 있다.

The need of constructing high-tech facilities is one of the important issues concerning the competitiveness by the high-tech companies. It, simultaneously, offers a magnificent opportunity for construction participants. Nevertheless, the high-tech construction is experience-based, resulting in little related construction knowledge that has been statistically analyzed and documented. This study measures and confers with the profit patterns causing the disparity between the traditional and high-tech construction. The database was the result of collecting detailed information of 65 construction projects from eight construction companies, including detailed records of over 20 main construction operations in each project. All of these were performed during the recent 10 years and encompassed in the project types of the high-tech construction, residential building, and commercial building. Rendering suggestions regarding profit management and expecting to economize cost of learning from inexperience while extending to the high-tech construction were both presented.

한국 건설 기업들의 해외 진출이 기하급수적으로 늘어나고 있지만 프로젝트를 수행함에 있어 사업의 수익률은 대기업과 경험이 부족한 중소기업을 비교하였을 때 큰 차이가 나타난다(대기업 5건 중 1건 적자, 중소기업 3건 중 1건 적자 공사). 또한 경험이 부족한 중소, 중견 기업들, 특히 하도급 업체에게는 프로젝트 참여시 사업의 적절성을 판단하기란 어려우며 그에 따른 수익률 또한 예측하기 어렵다. 이에 본 연구는 중소/중견 업체, 특히 하도급 업체 관점에서 해외 건설공사 진출 시 수익률에 영향을 미치는 영향인자를 도출하기 위해 1965년부터 시행된 8,637건의 해외건설 준공데이터 및 문헌고찰 기반으로 수익률에 영향을 미치는 10개 인자를 도출 후 다중회귀분석을 통해 영향인자 간 가중치를 도출하였다. 이를 기반으로 사례기반 추론 기법을 이용하여 수익률 예측 모델을 개발하였으며, Type1 &Type2 error 분석을 통해 검증 결과 11%의 오차율을 보였다. 이러한 수익성 예측 모델을 활용하여 국내 건설 하도급업체들은 해외건설공사 진출 시 해당 프로젝트의 수익성 분포를 사전에 확인하여 양질의 프로젝트를 선별하고, 사업 참여의 의사결정에 중요한 참고자료가 될 것을 기대한다.

Since Jan. 2004, the Ministry of Construction and Transportation has partly introduced estimation system of historical cost data in order to reflect result cost of construction market to cost estimation for public construction. It is expected that the purpose of the introduction would be evaluated considering the long-term development of domestic construction industry. In article 3, paragraph 4 of the planning criteria of estimated cost of financial regulation related to government contract rule, the profit estimated by historical cost data indicates sales profit and it is calculated by multiplying the sum of direct cost, indirect cost and general overhead by rate of profit. Finally, it is said that rate of profit cannot exceeds 10%. However, there are a lot of constructions for electronic equipment in the electronic construction and the proportion of government furnished material is very high, not like engineering works or constructions. Therefore, as the proportion of material cost over direct cost is relatively lower, if current rate of profit (10%) is applied, there would be a wide difference of cost in the items of profit under the estimation system of historical cost data. This paper was conducted to examine estimation methods of the items of profit under the estimation system of historical cost data and suggest reasonable applications.

Competitive bidding in construction is concerned with contractors making strategic decisions in respect of determination of bid price if contractors opt to bid. This study presents a strategy model for deciding optimum tender price with reflecting appropriate profit in competitive bidding using Bayesian regression analysis (BRA). The purpose of the developed model is to help contractors to secure suitable profitability by predicting the actual profit based on key variables. They may affect construction cost at bidding phase, ultimately which help contractors to secure high quality output. The model was tested empirically by application to a bidding dataset collected from a large South Korea contractor. BRA allows contractors to estimate more accurate actual profit by reflecting not only objective information but also subjective experiences and judgments. Consequently, the model can contribute to improvement of decision-making process for setting an optimum tender price.

Domestic construction companies are suffering from financing difficulties in the wake of the economic slump in Korea and abroad. During this economic slump, real estate investment trusts (REITs), facilitators for improving financing and stimulating construction businesses, have increasingly expanded since their introduction in 2001. However, in terms of growth speed and marketing size, Korean REITs are falling behind those of other nations. The purpose of this study is to suggest a method for composing a portfolio using the Markowitz portfolio selection model to stimulate REITs. The main contents are as follows. First, a comparative analysis was conducted of increased REIT profit with the application of the Markowitz model and the average REIT profit rate from July 3, 2007, to July 21, 2008, during the investment analysis periods. The results showed that the total profit rate from the Markowitz model was about 10% higher than the average REIT profit rate. Second, the sensitivity was analyzed according to the portfolio's data-gathering and replacement cycle to measure the optimum cycle and yield. The six-mouth profit data collection period showed about 16% higher profits with the Markowitz model than with the REITs. The two-week portfolio change period resulted in about 11% higher profits with the Markowitz model than with the REITs.

In the past, a strategic management of work demands has been increasingly challenged to design-build (DB) firms. Such a management is capable of providing sufficient profitable impact of a project on them. Total project profit is mainly related to actual resources, work completion time, amount of rework, and costs. The degree of recycling work packages in the DB project delivery system is used as a measure of the quality of the performed work. However, there are few models available to evaluate the impact of a demand management strategy on the DB firms and to predict its behavior. We propose a decision-making support model as an aid for assessing the amount of rework and for predicting project profit resulting in a convincible demand management strategy. This model is constructed by using a dynamic feedback approach that can analyze the problems arising in complex managerial systems. For the purpose of illustration, widely acceptable strategies were applied into the model to explore their impacts on the DB firms. The results indicate that the model is helpful for the managers in selecting the most appropriate demand management strategy for successfully achieving their objectives.
