Research Trend of Public-Private Partnership in Construction Journals

Abstract

Management͒ was reported. Their work inspired the writers of this paper to continue from where they left it. Based on a two-stage literature review, PPP articles from 1998 to 2008 were analyzed in terms of the annual number of PPP articles published, the writers' contribution, and the research focus in their studies. From the analysis it was found that the number of PPP publications in these journals has been increasing. This finding might imply that PPPs are becoming more important to the construction industry at large. In addition, this study also found that the U.K. researchers have published the largest number of PPP articles, followed by those from the United States, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, China, and Germany. Although the build-operate-transfer scheme was the most frequently investigated form of PPP in earlier research, the diverse concept of PPP has attracted a lot of research interest and has become the focus of most recent PPP publications. Research topics published in these journals on investment environment, governance issues, and other supported areas tend to receive more attention from researchers. Moreover, complicated and vigorous analysis techniques such as game theory and fuzzy set theory have also been applied in this field of study.

Examining the Interrelationship among Critical Success Factors of Public Private Partnership Infrastructure Projects

“…The pressure of increased inefficiency in public service provision, fiscal constraints and public demands have led to a growing number of associations between public and private sectors for service provision and maintaining the sustainability of infrastructure projects [1,2]. Public-private partnerships (PPP) have become the mechanism for governments to attract and leverage private investment to provide public services [3,4].…”

“…Artikel kedua yang menggunakan istilah bibliometrik adalah Utama et al (2016) Setelah kedua artikel tersebut di atas, studi-studi yang serupa bermunculan untuk berbagai fokus riset yang berbeda. Contoh meliputi komputasi dalam rekayasa sipil (Abudayyeh et al, 2006); PPP (Ke et al, 2009), kemitraan dalam konstruksi (Hong et al, 2012); kinerja perusahaan konstruksi (Deng dan Smyth, 2013); building information modeling (Abdirad and Pishdad-Bozorgi, 2014); joint venture di konstruksi (Hong dan Chan, 2014); produktivitas konstruksi (Yi dan Chan, 2014); kolusi di konstruksi (Le dan Shan 2014); konstruksi berkelanjutan (Xia et al, 2015); metode pengadaan di konstruksi (Naoum dan Egbu, 2015); pengambilan keputusan (Bakht dan El-Diraby, 2015); perbandingan PPP di China dan negara lainnya (Zhang et al, 2016); dan bangunan hijau (Darko dan Chan, 2016). Secara prinsip, studi-studi tersebut ditujukan untuk kajian kritis dan identifikasi tren riset.…”

“…Ke et al, 2009;Yi dan Chan, 2014), asal negara penulis juga menarik untuk dianalisis untuk mengetahui kontribusi negara yang direpresentasikan dari afiliasi penulis saat riset dilakukan dan sekaligus menentukan kiblat riset manajemen risiko konstruksi. Berhubung satu artikel bisa ditulis oleh beberapa peneliti dengan asal negara yang berbedabeda, dibutuhkan pendekatan menentukan jumlah artikel tertimbang.…”

An empirical survey of the benefits of implementing pay for safety scheme (PFSS) in the Hong Kong construction industry

“…The literature search for the benefits of PFSS was conducted under the "all" field of two common search engines "Scopus" and "Google Scholar" which are regarded as powerful, comprehensive and reliable search tools adopted by several researchers nowadays (e.g. Al-Sharif and Kaka, 2004;Ke et al, 2009). Search keywords included "pay for safety scheme", "pay for safety" and "safety incentive schemes".…”
