基于伙伴关系的国际EPC水电项目设计管理

Enhancing design management in international EPC projects based on partnering

提升中国水电施工企业作为国际设计-采购-施工(EPC)项目总承包商的设计管理水平有利于增强中国企业的国际竞争力。基于文献调研,该文构建了基于伙伴关系的国际工程EPC项目设计管理模型,分析了伙伴关系、设计管理和项目绩效之间的作用机理,并利用从6个国家的7个大型EPC水电项目收集的数据进行了实证检验。通过信度效度检验、因子分析和路径分析,得出主要结论有:1)EPC总承包商设计管理重点可解构为制度建设、争端处理、方案优化以及技术提升4个因子;2)伙伴关系、设计管理与项目绩效之间存在正向促进关系,设计管理对项目绩效提升有显著促进作用,伙伴关系不仅可以通过促进设计管理提升项目绩效,还可以直接改善项目绩效。

China＇s hydropower construction companies need to improve their design management skills to compete in the international engineering-procurement-construction（EPC）market.A design management model was used to identify the relationships between partnering with stakeholders,design management and project performance.Data from 7 hydropower EPC projects in 6countries was evaluated using reliability tests,factor analyses and path analyses to show that design management is dependent on system building,dispute settlements,value adding and technology promotion.Partnering with stakeholders,design management and project performance are positively related.Partnering not only enhances project performance by promoting effective design management,but also directly improves project performance.
