“…This is production which does not put the environment in jeopardy and meets the established standards and requirements of organizations which control environmental protection. But at that legislator did not prescribed what exactly should be understood as environmentally safe commodity-construction production (HCP, in our case) from the point of view of its impact on health of the people who lives there [7,8,9]. So, the states above allow to draw some conclusions: 1.…”

Abstract. The author studies innovative activity of enterprises and carries out the classification of conditions and factors of construction enterprises' innovative activity, and conducts systematization of specific features of this innovative activity. On the basis of statistical data on structure and dynamics of innovations the author carries out the research with the use of methods of economic-mathematical modelling in order to offer the approach which will allow construction enterprises to define the directions of innovative activity for achievement of a resource-saving and energy efficiency in construction sector.

“…Although in the past few years, in developing countries especially in Uttar Pradesh, India, it is a common observation that construction activities being conducted by government and its subsidiary agencies prefer lowest bidder techniques to award a project for medium-scale projects. The contractor whose bidding price is the lowest will win the bid (Manu et al, 2015;Dražić et al, 2016;Elzomor and Parrish, 2016;Deep et al, 2017a;Dixit et al, 2017). The prequalification and bid assessment methods require the advancement of essential and adequate selection criteria (Palaneeswaran and Kumaraswamy, 2000).…”

Purpose: Recent studies show that lowest bidder technique is mainly used in developing countries such as India to award a contract. It has been demonstrated that the lowest bid is not always the accurate one and can lead to cost overruns and time extensions amongst other problems. The aim of this study was to investigate the critical factors impacting contractor’s efficiency in Indian construction projects. Research approach: A survey was sent to participants of construction projects awarded by the government with the lowest bidder technique in Uttar Pradesh, India. For further research, snowball sampling was used, and structured interviews were conducted amongst experienced managers and engineers of these projects on both client’s and contractor’s side.Findings: It was observed that, to a greater extent, the delays were caused due to contractor’s opportunistic behaviour. The main findings are that new bidding methodologies are to be tested as they can lead to the choice of a more accurate and realistic bidder. In addition, subjective evaluation components, such as schedule and workforce, should be reflected in contract award methods in addition to the cost criteria. Further studies should be performed on the choice of contract awarding methodology based on the project size and type. Originality value: The researcher’s focus was to analyze the influence of contracting methodologies and factors affecting contractor’s performance in lowest bid award project, where this is an area of least focus amongst researchers in the Indian subcontinent.
