Improving Value Management (VM) practice via International VM Study Process and Qualification System |
Principal Investigator: Dr Mei-yung LEUNG Organization: The Hong Kong Institute of Value Management (HKIVM) Collaborating Organization: Department of Building and Construction, The City University of Hong Kong (CityU)
Supporting organization: The Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors (HKIS) Further to our previous successful PSDAS project (no. 2003-2-7) in conjunction with the HKIS, construction value management was introduced to over 350 construction professionals in HK and 150 professionals in the Mainland. The economical situation in HK has improved since 2004 (GDP increased by 5% (HK$ 1,269 billion in 2004); Tang 2005), but the construction industry is still facing a serious recession (construction industry’s contribution to HK’s GDP decreased to 4.4% in 2004 from 7.3% in 1997) (Census & Statistics Department 2005). There is a need and expectation for increased cost savings, i.e. “value” in construction projects to enhance the final performance. To cope with the ever changing construction techniques and external environment, construction professionals need a systematic decision-making process and innovative techniques to solve problems in complicated construction projects. Traditional decision making and management processes generally fail to enhance the quality and value of construction projects, whereas VM which is a systematic and creative team decision-making process which can ensure better value.
This project aims to improve VM practice (study process and qualification system) for construction professionals in HK so as to enhance the competitiveness of the construction professionals in a regional context. Achieving the desired project aim requires the following objectives to be fulfilled, and they are:
(1) to review local /international VM study processes and qualification systems (e.g., USA, UK, Australia, Korea, China); (2) to provide training related to the essences of three key VM phases (function analysis, creativity and evaluation); (3) to recommend appropriate VM study process and qualification system in HK; and (4) to disseminate the outcomes of the project (refer to the above Objectives 1-3) to construction professionals in HK.
