Transforming and upgrading the traditional construction industry?

Transformation and upgrading of the traditional construction industry specific content, the following Zhongda Consulting for you to answer.

1 Introduction

Since the reform and opening up, especially since the Fourth Plenary Session of the Thirteenth Central Committee of the Party, as one of the basic pioneer industries on which the related industries depend for their survival and development, the reform and development of the construction industry has made remarkable achievements. According to the information of the National Bureau of Statistics, from 1989 to 2001, the added value of the construction industry nationwide (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, hereinafter the same) grew from 79.4 billion yuan to 646.2 billion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of 12.6 (after deducting the factor of price increase), higher than the growth rate of China's gross domestic product (GDP) during the same period (( 9.3 %); the proportion of the added value of the construction industry to GDP increased from 4.7% to 6.7, reaching a level of 4.7%, which is the same as the proportion of the construction industry to the GDP, with an average annual growth rate of 6.7 %. increased to 6.7, reaching the indicator standard of pillar industry. The construction industry ranks 4th among all industrial sectors of the national economy (after industry, agriculture and commerce), contributing to the sustained and stable growth of the national economy. Summarizing the experience since the reform and opening up, especially since the Fourth Plenary Session of the Thirteenth Central Committee, the 16th Party Congress clearly put forward the need to concentrate on the comprehensive construction of a higher level of moderately prosperous society benefiting more than a billion people in the first two decades of the 21st century and formulated a grandiose program for the construction of a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way. The construction of moderately prosperous society is bound to accelerate the process of urbanization in China, and the acceleration of urbanization

The acceleration of urban infrastructure and residential construction is inseparable from the great development, which will certainly provide a broader stage for the construction industry. It can be expected that the construction industry in the national economy will continue to strengthen the status of pillar industries, the pulling effect on the national economy will be more significant.

In terms of the current situation, China's construction industry is mainly characterized by the following three:

(1) the overall size of the construction industry, but the economic benefits are generally not high. At present, China's construction industry contains more than 60,000 construction enterprises, 12,000 design enterprises and 27,000 real estate enterprises. According to the statistics of 2003, the whole industry completed the preliminary design investment of 121.72 billion yuan, completed the construction drawing design investment of 186.63 billion yuan, and realized the survey and design total income of 93.1 billion yuan. Completed building and installation project investment accounted for about 65% of the total investment in social fixed assets, the annual project volume is the world's largest. However, China's building construction enterprise profitability is not good, China's 2000 building construction enterprise output profit margin of 1%, the capital profit margin of 8 10%, while the Japanese company's output profit margin of 1 -2%, the capital profit margin of 20 a 35%.

(2) China's construction industry enterprises in the international market share is still very small, and the scale of China's construction industry is very disproportionate. Although in recent years China's large international contracting company's market share is on the rise, but compared with foreign enterprises, the absolute number of market share is still very small. According to the report of a British research organization, the total amount of international engineering contracts in the world is now around 1 trillion US dollars per year, but the amount of foreign engineering contracts in China in 2001 was 13 billion US dollars, accounting for only 1.3% of the total amount of international engineering contracts in the world. In addition, according to the International Labor Organization statistics, the world's annual transnational mobility of the working population to maintain roughly between 20 million to 30 million people, and the end of 2000, China's foreign labor force of 420,000 people, only 1% of the world's transnational mobility of the working population of 1% to 2% of the total.

(3) including China, the world's countries in the process of engineering and construction losses and waste is amazing, the potential for savings is huge. According to the United States in 1999, the relevant departments of statistics, in the total cost of 650 billion U.S. dollars in many projects, due to over-budgeting, faulty design and construction caused by rework, delayed, improper management of the loss and waste of 200 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for about 30% of the amount invested in our country has not yet done a similar statistic, but we estimate that the phenomenon of waste will be even more serious.

The root cause of the above characteristics lies in the backwardness of the construction industry management and technical means. China's engineering and construction field has long been a labor-intensive, sloppy operation of the industry, the management level and the contribution of science and technology is not high, according to the relevant departments of the calculation, in China's engineering and construction field of economic benefits in the growth of less than 30% is to rely on technological progress to obtain, while the value of this value in some of China's other industries reached 50%.

At the beginning of the new century, China's construction industry is facing serious challenges and rare opportunities for development. In particular, the Chinese government's commitment to join the WTO within three years will be open to foreign businessmen in the construction industry, not long ago this commitment has been partially realized in advance, which will make this industry more intense competition. The face of strong capital, advanced technology and advanced management experience of international multinational corporations, the challenge, must rely on technological progress in order to fight against it. Especially the Party's Fifth Plenary Session of the Fifteenth Central Committee put forward the use of information technology to drive industrialization, to give full play to the advantage of latecomers, to achieve leapfrog development of productive forces. The construction industry is one of the pillar industries of the national economy, and it is also a traditional industry that needs to be transformed by high technology. How to make full use of the new technological resources in the 21st century, accelerate the development of China's construction industry, is a very urgent task in front of us.

In recent years, the international community, especially the developed countries on the "use of information technology to enhance the construction industry" have attached great importance to this has become a major trend in the development of the world's construction industry. After theoretical research and technical practice, countries have entered into the promotion and application stage, and achieved good social and economic benefits. According to the 1999 Latham report in the United Kingdom, the British construction industry can save about 30% of the cost of construction projects in five years through better use of information technology, new methods and enhanced training. As a result of the use of Web sites, the British construction market can save a lot of money every year, while the construction period is shortened by 15. The U.S. bidding Web site (www.bidcom.com) and the construction network (www. bulidnet.com) have claimed that by bringing the construction market to the Internet they can save 30% -35% of the cost of the project. The experience of developed countries shows that although industrialization driven by information technology will increase investment by 30%, it can improve product grade and quality, improve the production environment, and reduce energy and raw material consumption, thus increasing economic benefits by 85%.

2 developed countries, the status of information technology in the construction industry

1997 at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom, "International Architecture Forum", more than 30 internationally renowned experts agreed that the construction industry in the past five years of change is greater than in the previous 50 years, it is the information revolution to the construction industry has brought about sweeping changes. These changes in general is the informationization of the construction industry, specifically reflected in the following four aspects: (1) e-government in the construction industry; (2) the information management of engineering projects; (3) the information management of municipal utilities; (4) the enterprise's own information construction.

In terms of developed countries and regions in the process of promoting information technology in the construction industry to take the initiative, both **** place, but also personality, the result is that there is an imbalance in the realization of information technology. One of the initiatives of a *** nature is to emphasize research on the application of information technology in the construction industry. For example, Stanford University in the United States as early as 1989, the establishment of a cross civil engineering disciplines and computer disciplines of the research center LIFE ( Center for Integrated Facility Engineering), more than a decade, the research center to get sufficient scientific funds and corporate sponsorship, in the construction industry information technology to do a lot of pioneering work. To the United States and even the world in this area of research has played a leading role, but also for the information management of engineering projects and enterprises to lay a solid foundation for their own information construction; Another example, the European Union invested heavily in the organization of ESPRIT (European Information Technology Research and Development Strategic Planning), completed COMMIT, COMBINE, ATLAS and other well-known research projects, published a fruitful The research results have laid a solid foundation for all aspects of construction industry informatization. The second initiative is that the government takes the lead in establishing an informatization system, while encouraging enterprises to strengthen their own informatization construction. For example, most of the developed countries and regions have already set up a relatively perfect e-government system, whereby enterprises and individuals concerned in the construction industry can obtain necessary information from the Internet and go through relevant major procedures. Some countries and regions have also established a government project bidding, procurement system (Japan, Taiwan, China), the government engineering contractor database (UK), construction project design approval management system (Singapore), public **** project computer-aided management (Hong Kong, China), received an effective reduction in project costs, improve the quality of the project to reduce a variety of corrupt practices of the effect.

Japan's construction field of information technology construction has a certain degree of representation. 1996 May, Japan's Ministry of Construction made a decision on the promotion of information technology for the public **** construction projects: in 2004 before the first in the construction of the Ministry of the national key projects directly under the realization of information technology; in 2010 before the realization of information technology in all of the public **** construction projects. This means that, from 2004 onwards, in order to participate in Japan's national key public **** construction projects, whether it is for the design of the project, the construction of general contracting or subcontracting, etc., must be in accordance with information technology protocols. From project bidding, submission of process management information, to submission of completion data, all must be carried out through computer networks or electronic media. And as of 2010, any public **** construction project in Japan will come with such a requirement.

The U.S. is at the forefront of the world not only in the construction of enterprise information technology, but also in the implementation of information management of engineering projects, especially in the use of Internet-based collaborative work system to carry out the project between the parties to the exchange of information and **** enjoyment. A typical example is that the Buzzsaw platform developed by Autodesk has been successfully used for the management of nearly 65,000 engineering projects. In addition, similar to the Buzzsaw platform, Honeywell's MyConstruction platform, Unisys

Company's ProjectCenter, in the actual project have been well used.

Overall, although the developed countries and regions in the construction industry information technology in front of us, but also still in the initial stage, many problems are still to be solved, which leaves us catching up and beyond the margins.
