In order to ensure that related enterprises occupy a large share in the market, enterprises adopting EPC mode often adopt closed-loop management, including design, procurement and construction, instead of undertaking separate external contracting for the construction process. Based on this background, this paper studies and expounds the concrete measures to strengthen the management of EPC contracting mode, and improves the economic and social benefits of engineering enterprises.展开更多

Its work schedule and quality have a significant impact on the duration and cost of the EPC project. For EPC projects, the quality of procurement management largely determines the smooth implementation and profit and loss of the project.展开更多

In this article, we research how professionals with experience in public bids assess the difficulty degree of the implementation of those requirements and how they assess the environmental legislation regarding the protection and conservation of the environment, impact on costs, deadlines and the solution to environmental problems. The results show that industry professionals consider as “high” the level of difficulty to implement the addressed sustainability requirements, and that the Brazilian environmental legislation does not comply with its environmental protection role, increases the possibility of delays and costs of projects and services and hampers the emergence of solutions that could solve environmental problems.展开更多

To ensure rapid and sustainable economic growth, strong support from the energy sector is required. Governments in Vietnam have invested in numerous hydropower projects, many of which employ the EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) contract. However, the EPC general contractors are facing many difficulties, resulting in schedule delays and considerable losses. This research is conducted to highlight the main risk factors in the delays of hydropower construction projects in Vietnam. The research employs the method of statistical calculations and risk analysis to obtain feedback from experts participating in similar projects. The research outcomes are as follows: identifying the risks that can cause delays in EPC hydroelectric construction projects in Vietnam;calculating and classifying the degree of impact of each risk to the progress of the construction. The practical significance of this study is to ensure the timely completion of projects, benefits for the investors, and the EPC general contractors.展开更多
