Project construction on behalf of the deepening of the spirit of contract in the entrustment of the agent, is the modern market economy in the context of the division of labor further refinement of one of the manifestations. Construction manager as the owner's agent, within the scope of business entrusted by the owner to carry out work in the name of the owner, such as the right to independently select designers and contractors, the owner is responsible for all the actions of the construction manager. Adopting CM system for project management, the key lies in the selection of construction manager, generally speaking, proficient in management, business, law, design, construction and other knowledge and skills, and has a wealth of experience and good reputation, is an excellent construction manager must have the quality. It is responsible for the investment management and construction organization and implementation of the project, and the system of delivering the project to the user unit after completion. Compared with the CM system, both in the definition of the agent and in the selection process, the modern substitute construction system is more scientific and advanced.
Projects on behalf of the construction system:
Projects on behalf of the construction system originated in the United States of America's construction manager system (CM system). CM system is the owner entrusted a person called construction manager is responsible for the management of the entire project, including feasibility studies, design, procurement, construction, completion of the commissioning of the project, but not contracted for the cost of the project.
The difference between project construction system and general contracting and project management:
(1) general contracting
The contractor is responsible for the design and construction of the project, and is fully responsible for the quality, safety, schedule and cost of the project.
(2) Construction General Contracting
The general contractor, in accordance with the contract, completes the engineering design, procurement of equipment and materials, construction, commissioning and other services to realize the design, procurement, construction of all phases of the work of the reasonable intersection and close coordination, and the quality of the project, safety, schedule and cost of the full responsibility of the contractors in the commissioning phase also need to undertake technical services.
(3) turnkey general contracting
Basically the same as EPC, but the commissioning of the need to assume full responsibility.
Engineering project management refers to the engineering project management enterprise entrusted by the owner, according to the contract, on behalf of the owner of the project organization and implementation of the whole process or a number of phases of management and services. Project management enterprises are not directly involved in the construction of the project, but to assist the owner of the project management, such as in the project decision-making stage, for the owner of the project planning, preparation of project proposals and feasibility study reports; in the implementation stage of the project for the owner to provide bidding agent, design management, procurement management, construction management and commissioning services.
The outstanding difference between the construction system and the above two is that: on behalf of the construction unit has the status of a legal person in the construction phase of the project, has the rights of legal persons (including the right to dispose of the construction funds under the supervision of the owner), and at the same time bear the corresponding responsibilities (including the responsibility for the preservation of the value of the investment). Whether the general contractor, or project management enterprises do not have the status of legal person of the project, and thus can not exercise all the rights and assume the corresponding responsibility. As a result, the project user can not be freed from the project construction.
Procedural steps:
(1) the use of the unit to put forward the project demand, the preparation of project proposals, in accordance with the prescribed procedures for approval of the development and reform departments;
(2) the development and reform departments to approve the project proposal, and in the approval of the project proposal to determine that the project to implement the system of construction, specify the specific mode of construction;
(3) the development and reform departments to commission a social bidding agency with the appropriate qualifications, and the project management agency to implement the system of construction. The development and reform department entrusts the social bidding agency with appropriate qualifications, in accordance with the relevant national and local regulations, through bidding to determine the conditions of the preliminary work agency unit, the development and reform department and the preliminary work agency unit, the use of the unit of the three parties signed a written "preliminary work entrustment contract";
(4) the preliminary work agency unit in compliance with the relevant provisions of the national and local regulations, the project survey, design public bidding, and Carry out preliminary work in accordance with the Contract for Entrustment of Preliminary Work, and the depth of preliminary work must reach the relevant state regulations. If the estimated investment in preliminary design submitted for review exceeds a certain percentage of the approved estimated investment in the feasibility study report (e.g., 3%) or if the floor area exceeds a certain percentage of the approved area (e.g., 5%), it is necessary to modify the preliminary design or to re-compile the feasibility study report, and report it to the original approval department for approval in accordance with the prescribed procedures;< /p>
(5) the development and reform departments, in conjunction with planning, construction and other departments, the government investment in the project on behalf of the preliminary design and estimated investment for review and approval;
(6) the development and reform departments entrusted with the appropriate qualifications of the bidding agency, based on the approved preliminary design of the project and estimated investment in the preparation of bidding documents, and the organization of construction and implementation of the construction unit of the bidding;
(7) the development and reform department and the construction and implementation of the construction unit, the use of units signed a written tripartite "project on behalf of the contract", the construction and implementation of the construction unit in accordance with the contract in the construction phase of the implementation of the responsibility of the use of the unit, "project on behalf of the contract" before the entry into force of the construction and implementation of the construction unit should be provided with the construction of the estimated investment of 10-30% of the performance of the bank guarantee. Specific bond amount, according to the characteristics of the project industry, determined in the project bidding documents;
(8) construction implementation on behalf of the construction unit in accordance with the relevant national and local regulations, the project construction, supervision and procurement of important equipment and materials for public bidding, and strictly in accordance with the approved scale of construction, construction content, construction standards and estimated investment, construction organization and management, strict control of the project budget to ensure that the quality of construction, delivery on time. Project quality, delivery and use on schedule, strictly prohibit the use of construction in the construction process, construction negotiation or supplementary signing of other agreements to arbitrarily change the construction scale, construction standards, construction content and total investment, due to technical, hydrological, geological and other reasons must be carried out for design changes should be made by the construction and implementation of the construction unit, by the supervisory and use of the unit agreed to report to the Department of Development and Reform for approval, and then in accordance with the relevant procedural requirements of the other relevant regulatory departments for review. Departments for review;
(9) government investment in the construction of the project on behalf of the completion of the project, must be in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state and the "project on behalf of the contract" agreed to carry out a rigorous completion inspection and acceptance of the government's investment in the approval of the financial accounts, the project acceptance, before being delivered to the use of the qualified.
