公共项目管理绩效改善研究的范式变革

科学研究的不断深入总会引发当前范式所不能容纳的“例外”或“难题”,而它们积累到一定程度就会促使研究者尝试用新的范式去解释,这本质上是对该领域研究的变革。以公共项目管理绩效改善研究为对象,认为随着人们对于公共项目本质认识的发展,其依次经历了技术范式、组织范式、契约范式和关系范式,详细评述了各范式下的代表性研究以及每一次范式转换的驱动力,以期揭示公共项目管理绩效改善研究领域的发展脉络。     

公共项目管理绩效的形成机理研究

公共项目管理绩效不高的现象普遍存在,如何改善一直都是困扰世界各国的难题,而改善公共项目管理绩效的首要问题就是了解影响它的各种因素及其相互关系,剖析其形成机理。针对这一问题,在大量文献综述的基础上,总结出能够在很大程度上影响项目管理绩效并且可以为人们控制的两大类因素,即项目管理与项目治理;并运用SCP范式分析了公共项目管理绩效、治理、管理之间的关系,揭示了公共项目管理绩效的形成机理,从而为改善我国公共项目管理绩效提供了指导性建议。

全过程代建项目的有效管理探讨

为了顺利推进工程项目建设工作,需要提高全过程代建项目的有效管理水平,推动我国全过程代建制的发展。本文主要分析了全过程代建项目有效管理,提出针对性的管理措施,对于实际工作起到参考。     

公共项目治理评价的定量化研究

公共项目治理理论的研究取得了长足进步,已经发展到亟需解决定量化研究及模型化分析的阶段。通过对主流治理理论中治理评价研究的理论和方法的梳理,发现开展对公共项目治理评价研究是解决公共项目治理理论定量化、模型化分析的关键。公共项目作为一个临时性社会网络组织,其治理情境中除了正式契约治理之外大量的非正式关系治理机制发挥着重要作用,因此,将契约治理和关系治理共同纳入公共项目治理评价的研究框架,构建公共项目治理绩效作为中间理论变量,从而明确公共项目治理的内涵,建立能够对公共项目治理绩效与实现程度进行衡量的标准,为后续治理水平评价的定量化、模型化研究提供治理核心要素及可测度的评价指标。公共项目治理绩效测量的研究将会促使后续公共项目治理水平评价等对策性问题迎刃而解。

Beyond the ‘iron triangle’: Stakeholder perception of key performance indicators (KPIs) for large-scale public sector development projects

Performance measurement criteria vary from project to project. Despite much work on the subject, there is no commonly agreed framework of performance measurement on mega projects. To bridge this gap, this research targets to investigate the perception of the key performance indicators (KPIs) in the context of a large construction project in Thailand. The study explores the significance of key performance indicators in perspective of various construction stakeholders (client, consultants, and contractors). Findings indicate that the traditional measures of the iron triangle (on-time, under-budget and according to specifications) are no more applicable to measuring performance on large public sector development projects. Other performance indicators such as safety, efficient use of resources, effectiveness, satisfaction of stakeholders, and reduced conflicts and disputes are increasingly becoming important. This implies that the Thai construction industry is slowly departing from the traditional quantitative performance measurement to a rather mix of both quantitative and qualitative performance measurement on large-scale public sector development projects.     

Investigation of air management and energy performance in a data center in Finland: Case study

This is the first research paper on data center from Finland. The objectives of this study are to evaluate air management and energy performance of cooling system and investigate the possibilities of energy saving and reuse in the data center. Field measurements, particularly for long term's IT and facility powers, were conducted. Different performance metrics for the cooling system and power consumption were examined and analysed. Key problem areas and energy saving opportunities were identified. The electrical end use breakdown was estimated. Results show that IT equipment intake conditions were within the recommended or allowable ranges from ASHRAE. The Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) value for a typical year was about 1.33. Noticeable recirculation of hot air was not observed, but extreme bypass air was found. The air change rate was set much bigger than the recommended ASHRAE's value. There was no heat recovery system. The air management and heat recovery issues therefore need to be addressed. Fan speeds (Computer Room Air-Conditioning Unit) should be reduced and the ventilation rate should be minimized. Further, a simulated heat recovery system was presented demonstrating that the data center could potentially provide yearly space and hot water heating for 30,916 m² non-domestic building.     

Knowledge formation and learning in the management of projects: A problem solving perspective

In contrast to traditional projects, which are assumed to be fully specified and then executed with little learning anticipated, complex projects cannot be fully specified at the outset and require continuous learning over their life cycles. Nevertheless, the key role of knowledge formation and learning in managing complex projects is under-developed for expanding project capability boundaries to include knowledge uncertainty and indeterminacy.     

On the nexus of changing public facilities management practices: purposive and co-creative actions across multiple levels

Building on a practice-oriented approach and the theoretical construct of institutional work, the organizational nexus of changing practices for public facilities management is conceptualized in a multi-level framework. To support the conceptual framework, changing management practices are illustrated with the help of real-life experiences gained in a case study of a strategy project in a Swedish public construction client organization with the goal of developing a strategic facilities plan. These real-life examples, captured through interviews and field observations, cohere with the research method of narrative inquiry. The framework envisions projective agencies of various actors, both human and non-human (objects), in change processes. Findings show how key actors, through collaborative co-creation processes, take different complementary roles when promoting new practices into a specific organizational setting. By jointly promoting a set of preferred arrangements they establish proto-institutions. In addition, various objects were attributed rhetorical agency to support new public FM practices in that these served as purposeful non-human actors, triggering and legitimizing actions taken. With focus on emerging institutions in the making and especially projective agencies for institutional change, this research contributes to furthered layered understandings on institutional work related to change in construction in general and specifically in public sustainable facilities management.
