Construction of the competition and competition strategy

Engineering and construction firms from the United States dominated the global market for many decades but recent world events have altered their position.

To investigate the driving forces and trends that will affect engineering and construction competition in the next decade, a research project, called the 'Anatomy of Construction Competition in the Year 2000', was sponsored by the Construction Industry Institutes Construc-tion 2000 Task Force- The project examined the factors that affect competitiveness, including the following,

The shaping of corporate capabilities; vertical integration and horizontal expansion to increase corporate capabilities and market share, including acquisition and mergers by offshore conglomerates and the acquisition of foreign firms by U. S. companies.

Financing options; the role of privatization, build-own-transfer projects, and the nature of project financing in future markets, Management, organization, and structure; future management and organizational approaches, structures, and techniques to attract personnel to perform in a global competitive environment.

Work force characteristics; future availability of engineering and construction workers at the professional and craft levels.

Technological issues:how technology will affect competition and be used to offset work force shortages.

Research Objectives and Scope

This research projects goal is to collect information, to adapt to the 2000 and the engineering construction after adjustment, formulate strategies needed to provide insight and formulate 2000 engineering construction of possible development plan. This study reviewed the project construction process of history, current development trend, to determine the impact of the industry, and the impetus to the future industrial enterprises are related to reshape the ability, privatisation and financing methods of potential function and management, organization structure, methods for future development direction.

Research scope includes selected some of the company, the company has interviewed expertise personnel. The staff professional wide range, including commercial buildings, public buildings, industrial infrastructure, infrastructure construction, power, light industry. The production process and space science.

Engineering construction competitive characteristics

Engineering construction of competition because the following reasons in change features: In the 1980s, and plan in the 1990s, the implementation of the project construction are guided from contradictory situation, to cooperate.

Should be in a positive view of the new company to enter the international market, because of its construction increased global cooperation opportunities. Cooperation will make all the partners, because the American company benefit can be found in the country partner, likewise, foreign companies opportunities will break into the U.S. Market.

Competitive strategy Future strategy

In 2000, the company will strive to do:

Provide the highest quality service 

Can assume any part of the world In order to reduce the split ground and risk control 

Out in international market the most competitive price

In order to achieve the ideal, engineering construction should be:

 Increase staff capital investment

 The knowledge and improve labor technology level

 Have solid complete communications and transport infrastructure

 Concentrate on key research, product quality is guaranteed, fine, and arouse the enthusiasm of the workers, improve workers technology level.

The 21st century is the main factor fractal ring will compete in the international market, including the integration of productivity, union salary to abate, reduce the power industry management and privatization.

American company competition ability, largely depends on developing and effective use of technical innovation. American companies need not only use the technical innovation, domestic by other countries optimization improved technology. In the future will be popular technology innovation will not some big breakthrough, but the existing technology continuous improvements.
