This paper intends to suggest a XML-based secure E-Procurement system using Unified Modeling Language(UML), as an application system for domestic automobile industry. Applying UML methodology, which is Component-based Development (CBD), we analyzed the workflow on procurement operation of automobile industry and implemented a prototype of efficient E-Procurement system for automobile industry, by developing XML/EDI and XML signature. Also, on this paper, object-oriented CBD is employed to minimize the risk of life cycle and reuse software as mentioned to limitation of information engineering methodology. It enables the interoperability with ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) as corporate legacy system. This system proposes a solution to apply analysis and design of workflow, component development, interoperability with corporate information system, and XML signature for integrity and authentication of electronic documents in other system so far.

The national defense electronic procurement system is an information system supporting DAPA, services (Army, Navy and Air Force), and the procurement companies in the electronic bidding. It has contributed greatly to improving the efficiency of the national defense electronic procurement process by providing various information services based on inter-operation among the related parties. However the national defense electronic procurement system is expected to be upgraded to the next version in accord with rapidly evolving infrastructure based on high technology and increasing various communication channels. This paper investigates the satisfaction level of the system users and proposes directions for the next-generation procurement portal.

While the future of Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement is uncertain, TPP did succeed in convincing certain developing countries, which had been reluctant to open its government procurement market in the past, to open their markets. In this paper, we compare the government procurement chapter of TPP with WTO Government Procurement Agreement to see what factors may have convinced these countries to open their government procurement markets. The key factors seem to be an initially very high levels of threshold, coupled with an extended transition period (up to 20 years) to lower the threshold to figures comparable to other countries; and reduction of legal and regulatory burdens dealing with some transparency and procedural requirements. Korea should use these strategies in their future FTA negotiations to try to open foreign government procurement markets. If Korea wants to accede to TPP, it should have very few problems since Korea has similar threshold levels as current TPP members, and legal and regulatory requirements are more strict under GPA, of which Korea is a member.

In the plant EPC project, the procurement work can be considered as the most important part that affects the success or failure of project as it has the closest mutual influence in every execution process of the project. Procurement takes up generally 60% ~ 70% of the entire project budget and the current trend of plant EPC project becoming larger in scale and a variety of process technology being applied. So, it is needed to identify the risks that are expected to occur according to the stages of procurement work, namely, proposal stage, manufacturer selection and purchasing agreement stage, expediting the process management of manufacturer stage, inspection stage and logistics & transportation stage. The management of observation and control of the risks should be performed with the response techniques which are 'avoid',' transfer'and' mitigate'.

This paper empirically examined the relationships between the characteristics of purchasing items and the effective e-procurement strategies. We found that the importance of items has influence on the effective e-procurement, while the complexity of purchasing process has little influence. This fact exhibits the automation of transactional process has little influence on carrying out e-procurement. We also found, companies prefer the horizontal e-marketplace to the vertical e-marketplace. In addition, companies want to purchase through the e-bidding or reverse auction for lower prices.

The purpose of this study is to analyze of the risk factors for oversea plants construction projects. For this study, risk factors data from related literature review, research organization and construction company was researched and classified under each EPC phases. In addition, a questionnaire survey by plant experts was conducted for analysis of risk weight and costs and time impact on each EPC phases. The results of this study are as follows: First, a detail design errors(engineering phase), a equipment procurement plan(procurement phase), and exchange rate fluctuations(construction phase) were analyzed the highest weight factors. Second, a financing plan(engineering phase), quantity take-off bill(procurement phase), and exchange rate fluctuations(construction phase) were analyzed the highest cost impact factors. Third, detail design errors(engineering phase), a equipment procurement plan(procurement phase), and schedule management errors(construction phase) were analyzed the highest time impact factors.

Procurement and lifting scheduling of modules and resources in modular construction, where modules that are manufactured from factory are delivered and assembled on site, is a crucial factor that determines the efficiency of the whole construction. However, previous studies have barely acknowledged the significance of resource procurement process and lifting of modules in modular construction. Therefore, this research aims to derive factors that are in need of improvement for successful implementation of procurement and lifting efficiency, and visualize them according to their importance and performance on improvement through IPA(Important Performance Analysis).

Since the inauguration of WTO system has made borderless competition across the countries, many government should try to find out the harmonious policy paradigm for the check and balance between the globalization and localization. The government procurement market has been considered as one of this kinds of difficult tasks for the local small and medium companies. Many governments should lift the paradigm of the government procurement market toward the conditionally open competitive market. The paper is aimed to find out the sustainable governance of the government procurement policies to protect the local companies. Based on the many international cases, including the Chille-Korea FTA, the paper concludes the sustainable governance of the policies should be focused on the equitability and transparency.

As characteristic of construction industries, the Issues of construction management have been pointed out because of time and space limit among construction project participants (owner, supervisor, builder, experiment specialty institute, specialty construction company, material supplier and equipment supplier). To improve these issues, procurement system has been introduced by using internet and intranet. Procurement system that was developed by some of large construction companies was considered only internal supply on closed system method. They also restricted to article supply as supply concept. In this paper, we suggest a plan to establish integrated construction procurement system that expands to the article, service and construction work supplies by utilizing the bi-directional and real-time contact system and presents related following research program.
