Conceptual Determinants of Development of Intellectual Capital of Construction Enterprises

Abstract

The presence and effective implementation of the intellectual potential of construction enterprises is important for creating unique competitive advantages as a response to challenges caused by globalization, the era of the knowledge economy, as well as the development of communication and information technologies. The purpose of the study is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the factors that contribute to the development of intellectual capital in construction enterprises; development of an algorithm for thorough response by the enterprise to the action of determinants. The following methods were used: Analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction when studying the variety of determinants of the development of intellectual capital; grouping in the process of classifying determinants; statistical methods in the process of researching the reporting of construction enterprises; systematic approach in the process of forming an algorithm of actions aimed at ensuring effective management of the intellectual capital of construction enterprises; abstraction to generalize research results and outline significant trends in changing indicators that reflect the development of individual components of intellectual capital. In the paper, the determinants of the development of intellectual capital are grouped according to the classification features important for Ukrainian construction enterprises. The indicators, the monitoring of which is necessary in the process of implementing a conscious response to the action of the determinants of the development of the intellectual capital of construction enterprises, are studied on the example of Ukrainian construction enterprises.
