Take "substitute construction" as an opportunity to speed up the development of engineering project management company?

Since 2002, Beijing has been implementing the pilot project of substitute construction in Huilongguan Hospital, Municipal Vocational Training and Sports Training Center for the Disabled, Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and Nanchizi Dangerous Reform, etc. Up to now, the effect has been obvious, and good economic and social benefits have been achieved. In recent times, most provinces and cities across the country have promulgated provisional regulations or methods on the implementation of government investment projects on behalf of the construction system, and have started a number of pilot projects one after another. This provides demand for the development of China's engineering project management companies and brings opportunities for development. At the same time, with China's accession to the WTO, the opening of the construction market to foreign countries has made a number of advanced foreign engineering project management companies have joined the ranks of competition in the domestic engineering construction market. How to accelerate the cultivation of China's engineering project management companies, so that it can compete with foreign engineering project management companies, has become a very urgent issue.

1 The implementation of the construction system for the development of engineering project management company provides an opportunity

According to the National Development and Reform Commission drafted by the State Council adopted in principle the "Investment System Reform Program", the construction system refers to the government through the bidding, selecting professional project management company (hereinafter referred to as the construction unit), responsible for the project's investment management and construction of the organizational implementation of the project, the project was completed and delivered to the user system. The system of delivering the project to the user. During the construction period, on behalf of the construction unit in accordance with the contract on behalf of the project construction of the main investment responsibilities, the relevant administrative departments of the implementation of the construction system for the approval process of the construction project remains unchanged.

Engineering on behalf of the construction system is the world a more advanced and mature project legal person operation. In our country is an important initiative and new attempt to optimize the management of government investment projects. Generation of construction projects and the traditional construction project operation mode, compared to the form of change is from the past construction, management, operation of three into one, change for investment, construction, management, operation of four separate new operation mode. After the implementation of the mode of substitute construction, the functions of government departments are transferred from the management of specific projects to the management of the regulated market. Among them, the government departments are responsible for reviewing the project, bidding, budgeting and construction plans, arranging funding plans, supervising the implementation of the contract on behalf of the construction unit, responsible for the organization of the completion of the acceptance and transfer. The implementation of the construction system can be from the source to solve the current government investment management system in the project construction unit and the use of the unit, the government investment constraints soften, the project unit infrastructure professional management experience, the lack of over-investment risk prevention and constraints mechanism and other issues.

In the past, institutions need to increase building facilities, or the city needs to increase large-scale public **** building (state investment construction projects), are to the state application, the government department audit investment. The user as party A, undertake the construction of the unit (construction unit) for party B, the emergence of supervision companies in the project is responsible for party A, specifically responsible for assisting party A to supervise the quality of the project and the schedule. In this process the government will be the use of funds completely decentralized, the original role of the main body of the investment gave way to the applicant, its management and supervision functions significantly weakened. The experience of project construction proves that Party A often changes the design arbitrarily for the sake of increasing the utilization function and applies to the government for additional investment, as a result, the investment is constantly broken in the additional investment, and the construction period is delayed, so much so that there is a discrepancy between the function and the quality of the project. In this mode of operation, because of the capital, schedule, quality have become variables, its low efficiency, high cost, link confusion is inevitable.

The implementation of the substitute construction system, due to the reliance on professionals, the implementation of socialized management, will effectively improve the level of construction, reduce management costs, improve the transparency of the implementation of government investment projects, and facilitate supervision and management. At the same time, it can make the relevant departments and units exempt from the organization and management of the implementation of engineering projects of specific affairs, to solve the main external industry, decentralized management, duplication of the setup of institutions and other issues, reflecting the specialization of the law of modern production and development requirements, conducive to the promotion of the transformation of the functions of government departments.

Of course, in order to enable the victorious implementation of the system, it is necessary to establish the engineering project management market. The reality is: China's existing engineering project management company not only in the technical level and management capabilities and international engineering project management company there is a large gap, but also in the number of domestic market demand is difficult to meet. Therefore, the urgent transformation and cultivation of a number of engineering project management companies with international standards has become a very urgent issue.

2 How to accelerate the cultivation and development of engineering project management companies

In view of the current situation that there are still a large number of non-professionals directly managing construction projects, it is necessary to accelerate the cultivation and development of engineering project management companies according to China's actual situation and drawing on foreign practices.

2.1 Create a project management company based on the design institute

Creating an engineering project management company must be an organic combination of engineering technology and project management as the basic conditions must be based on similar experience abroad, combined with China's national conditions and the specific characteristics of the various professional projects. In Germany, the project management company is the architects and structural engineers from the team of consulting engineers set up specifically to provide project management services of the company. Due to the German education system, architects and structural engineers not only understand engineering design, but also are familiar with on-site construction management and organization, and more familiar with contract management. This is basically similar to the situation in our country and can be drawn upon. For example, industrial projects are characterized by highly technical processes and complex systems, and survey, design and consulting units are most familiar with project technology, equipment performance, operation and running, cost, schedule and quality, etc. Therefore, it is a direction to carry out functional reforms based on large-scale design institutes and to create international engineering project management companies. Highly specialized middle and small engineering consulting and design units can also operate and develop according to the model of engineering consulting companies, the key is to have engineering consulting (design), project management capabilities. Civil construction projects and industrial projects are not exactly the same, should also be combined with their own characteristics for development.

2.2 Great efforts to cultivate project management professionals

More than a decade of China's project management has made remarkable achievements, at the same time, also created a large number of project management personnel. However, due to the late start of China's project management, the industry is not standardized, the legal system is not sound and many other objective reasons, so that China's project management lags far behind the developed countries in the West, the quality of its project management personnel is generally low. Really understand the technology, good management of senior project management personnel is quite scarce. Can lead the overall situation, always always the chief engineer level management personnel is rare. Coupled with the reality that the internationalization of project management and information technology is forming a trend and trend, in order to meet the increasingly competitive international market and the arrival of the age of knowledge-based economy, the cultivation of composite high-quality project management personnel has become China's project management community can not afford to wait for the arduous task.

Developed countries attach great importance to the training and qualification of project management professionals, forming a sizeable industry. The PMP exams and qualification certificates for project management professionals sponsored by the American PMI Society are recognized by the society. People who get PMP have more chances to be employed and adopted by government departments and big companies, while China's systematic research on project management and industry practice started late, so the cultivation of project management talents is also relatively backward. In order to improve the quality of China's project managers, it is necessary to adopt a two-pronged approach of theoretical training and practical training for the characteristics of engineering construction. It is necessary to insist on the combination of basic education in universities and job training in industry organizations, and the combination of domestic training and foreign training. Project management disciplines should be frequently carried out at home and abroad experience exchanges and seminars; the Association should take up the responsibility of carrying out theoretical research on project management, practical experience exchanges and professional training, and strive for the publication of professional journals. Should be established in institutions of higher learning disciplines, master's degree and doctoral degree, to train a group of high-quality project management personnel with strong professional knowledge, understanding of economics, fine law, good management, proficient in computer and foreign languages.

2.3 Development of information technology project management

With the network into thousands of households, and the arrival of the knowledge-based economy, the informationization of project management has become an inevitable trend. As today's fastest update of computer technology and network technology in business management in the popularization and application of the speed is surprising, and shows the accelerated development trend. This brings a lot of new features to project management, and in today's high-speed expansion of information, project management is more and more dependent on computers. At present, some project management companies in western developed countries have already used computer network technology in project management and started to realize project management network and virtualization. In addition, many project management companies have begun to use project management software for project management in large quantities, and at the same time, they are also engaged in the development and research of project management software. All signs indicate that the 21st century project management will rely more on computer technology and network technology, the new century project management will become information management. Therefore, China's engineering project management companies must implement information-based project management. Only in this way, in order to shorten the gap with the developed countries engineering project management company, in order to have a place in the increasingly competitive international market.

2.4 As soon as possible to develop and implement project management integration, improve the level of project management

Creating an engineering company and project management company is not a simple name change, nor is it pulling a few technical professionals to register a company on the line. Internationally large engineering companies have been hundreds of years of history, and has the strength, wide range of specialties, engineering management experience, business throughout the world, etc., the technology and experience not only in the human brain, and a set of scientific, standardized management system, as well as the management procedures and methods, and more importantly, these companies have a powerful computer integrated system, technology and management Fully integrated, the formation of a wealth of resources. The so-called project management integration is to use the systematic method of project management, systematic integration of project-related resources, the rational use of project management techniques and application tools, to achieve the process of maximizing the benefits of project management. Project integrated management includes two levels of integration, one is to complete the integration of design, procurement and construction business processes based on engineering database and management database. The second is based on the engineering database and management database, around the schedule, cost, resources, quality management integration. Project management integration is of great significance to improve the core competitiveness of project management companies.
