Research on the Strategy for Outsourcing in Construction Projects: in Fast-track Project

Abstract

Fast-tracking was developed as an optimizing method to shorten the duration of construction project in 1960's, and it introduced to Korea in 1999. Since then, many Korean companies have been used fast-tracking for getting economical benefit from shorten duration. However, there were some problems(dispute, delay and cost overrun) because of using inappropriate subcontractor management system. For this reason, previous studies suggested some management models to solve these problems. Unfortunately, however, the models have been had some doubts about reliability, objectivity and possibility of using them on real construction site. Therefore, this study suggests 3 steps of strategic subcontracting method and apply it on real fast-tracking practice(L company) to secure reliability and objectivity. Through this, the method is expected to make up the doubts of previous studies.
