In thedynamic engineering consulting, less has been done so far. This research tries to find thepossibility and potential of the Internet application in design and consulting for the AEC industryby proposing a working model in specific area, steel construction. Several issues have beendiscussed: defining and formatting the typical procedure and character of the steel constructionconsulting, behavior approach based on activities among partners, and the model organization.展开更多

It involves the management of competing vegetation necessary to obtain the high yields expected in modern forest plantations via control of interfering plants that influence regeneration outcome, impact timber stand development, and limit native plant and wildlife diversity. It includes cultural control, fire control, mechanical control, biological control, and chemical control. The public perception of forest vegetation management, especially chemical control, is sometimes negative due to health and environmental concerns. It is an important tool in the forest management alternatives available to consulting foresters managing family forest lands (the vast majority of private forest land in the United States). We report on a study that addresses the motivations of family forest owners that implement forest vegetation management practices and the motivation of those who chose not to implement after forester recommendations to do so. For those who do implement forest vegetation management, improvement of wildlife habitat and increased timber growth was the main motivation. For those who did not, cost was the main concern. Size of forest holding plays a major role in determining who will practice intensive forestry.展开更多

However, there has been no attempt to ascertain the required level of KM within any given firm. The study reported in this paper aimed at establishing a general equation for assessing a firm’s required level of KM. Through literature review and a questionnaire survey, a total of 22 key indicators of KM were established. The interaction and effects of the key indicators against turnover and employee base were established, yielding an elliptic paraboloid fitted graph over which desirability could be calculated. It was observed that there is a continuous relationship among the firm’s turnover, employee base and the identified key indicators. In practice, firms have different combinations of the employee base and turnover. The derived equation fits well with the different combinations. Firms can, through the use of such equations, determine the level of effort and investment required to implement KM.展开更多

The rapid development of economy and society makes the competition of enterprises more intense, enterprises want to occupy a place in such a fierce market competition, it is necessary to constantly solve their own problems in the process of development, constantly pay attention to the important role of enterprise management consulting can play. This paper introduces the scenario simulation method and can play to the advantage of, on the basis of the main enterprise management consulting curriculum design idea of the scene simulation teaching method and the design process, and the scene simulation teaching method system of process simple boils down to "knowledge is the foundation, implementation is the core, feedback and summary is critical,". The paper also focuses on the application of scenario simulation method in enterprise consulting management diagnosis, thus providing a good reference for relevant courses in the application and operation of scenario simulation teaching method.展开更多

The rapid development of social economy has promoted the rapid development of the construction industry. At the same time, the construction of engineering projects has also brought new challenges, among which the most serious challenge is how to manage the whole process of cost consultation, which has a significant impact on the social economy, enterprise development and individuals. The project consulting management process in the whole project construction not only has a direct impact on the profit of the enterprise, but also has an impact on the effective management of the company's resources. In this respect, it is important and beneficial to study and analyze the consulting management and cost management in the whole construction process of engineering projects.展开更多
