“…In line with [45] also explore communication and e-negotiation practices in collaboration to get the best designs. Of course, the support of mutual trust can also increase collaboration among project participants [46]. Kent [30] mentioned that the retail design process that involves a wide range of stakeholders can enhance creative thinking to connect retailers and consumers.…”

Management of retail property is important in accommodating tenants who occupy retail space and consumers as a retail property business activity. Performance-based Building Design (PBBD) is a concept that can be used in planning and designing so that retail buildings can operate as expected. In this regard, the strategy of retail space contains three indicators of performance that are effectiveness, profitability, and efficiency. This study finds gaps in retail property management design research. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine the effect of PBBD application on the strategy for retail property space in Indonesia. A total of 96 respondents were involved in this study. Data were collected through a questionnaire survey to stakeholders who play a role in the development and management of the retail property in Surabaya. The data were then analyzed using multiple regression. From the analysis, it was found that the application of PBBD, namely user/occupant interest, building management, the process of design collaboration had a positive effect, while the risk of loss had a negative effect. This means that the increased application of PBBD, namely occupant interest, building management, the process of design collaboration and reduced risk of loss in retail buildings, can improve the strategy for managing retail property space in Surabaya, Indonesia. A more detailed analysis of each indicator of the retail space strategy shows different results. The result show that the application of PBBD influence to the effectiveness contributes 44.6%, the influence of PBBD application to the profitability contributes 49.4%, the application of PBBD has an influence for the efficiency by 61.5%, and overall, the influence of PBBD application to the management retail property space contributes 68.9%. The results of this research are very important and have implications for retail space planning strategies. What will happen to retail property management at the operational stage, it can be seen through the implementation of PBBD in the briefing and planning stages.

“…Moreover, IPD can increase the success in constructing greener buildings, where essential resources are consumed efficiently and waste is reduced (AIA, 2007;Ghassemi and Becerik-Gerber, 2011;Ma et al, 2018). In fact, early stakeholder involvement, enhanced collaboration and building mutual trust among stakeholders are essential elements for delivering green building projects (Ferme et al, 2018). In IPD, integrated teams spend more time and energy making decisions early in the project when the ability to affect the project positively is highest (Kraatz et al, 2014).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to quantify the barriers to the use of integrated project delivery (IPD), as assessed by 115 construction professionals in Malaysia. Design/methodology/approach Barriers recording highest citation amongst researchers worldwide were collated in the form of a conceptual model. This model was validated via a partial least squares structural equation modelling technique. Findings Findings advance the body of knowledge on IPD by providing original insights into the nature of key barriers, quantifying the relative importance of each barrier. Research limitations/implications Despite the above-mentioned contributions, and before drawing any conclusion, it is prudent to acknowledge limitations, particularly the chosen research approach in focusing on the Malaysian context. Therefore, caution must be exercised in direct application of findings to other contexts; research findings should be seen through the lens of moderatum generalisations (see Payne and Williams, 2005). Practical implications Apart from contributions to the body of knowledge, for the world of practice, conditions impacting a transition to IPD are discussed, with a recommendation for change management through a tested mechanism like the European Corporate Sustainability Framework. Originality/value Being the first empirical study undertaken to quantify the relationship among the identified barriers and IPD, the present study contributes to the field by addressing the gap in IPD research in Malaysia, as an exemplar of a developing country; it creates knowledge to inform further improvements in project performance through facilitating IPD use. The study also offers insight to construction stakeholders in other developing countries for tackling issues that hinder the adoption of an IPD approach, and it also points to major barriers such that resources for tackling barriers may be allocated properly.

“…To deal with such a huge demand, prefabrication factories have been opened by different stakeholders including developers, design companies, contractors, and other investors (22). As the stakeholder who is directly involved in the construction process, the contractor has the willingness to open prefabrication factories to preferentially fulfill demand (23). However, as opening a prefabrication factory requires a huge amount of resources (e.g., site, technology, investment), the contractors need to carefully consider their potential decisions of opening prefabrication factories from many aspects.…”

Adoption of prefabrication is essential for improving the urban built environment. However, the existing prefabrication market in China is far from mature. As the stakeholder who conducts construction activities, the contractor is facing a dilemma of lacking steady prefabricated components supply. In this circumstance, a potential solution is that contractors open their own prefabrication factories to guarantee stable component supply. The aim of this research is exploring the key factors for contractors to open prefabrication factories. Firstly, a total of 28 influencing factors were identified from literature. Then, the identified factors were divided into four categories: policy environment, market environment, technological environment, and enterprise internal environment. Through interviews with experienced professionals, a total of 19 factors were selected for future analysis. Based on the 19 factors, a questionnaire was designed and distributed to the experts to rate the degree of mutual influences. The collected data were analyzed using Ucinet6.0 software, and the adjacency matrix and the visual models were established. Finally, through the analysis of node centrality, betweenness centrality, and closeness centrality, the four key influencing factors were determined including mandatory implementation policy, precast concrete component's price, market demand, and contractor's strategic objectives. The results of this study could assist contractors in making decisions of opening their own prefabrication factories toward more sustainable environment.
