“…This can indicate a lack of training for the construction labourers which can cause serious safety issues due to the high exposure level with all identified potential hazards. To avoid any of these incidents because of the lack of risk assessment skills, Schieg [30] suggests that risk assessment courses should be available for all the employees in the organization, including labourer and technician, where many of the construction companies try to improve the risk assessment skills only for senior decision-making staff. The author believes that a common error that construction companies make is their belief that risk assessment tools are only conducted in offices.…”

:Risk assessment is one of the most critical tools used in the safety engineering system in oil and gas construction projects due to it providing the required protection for the construction activities such as pilling, materials fabrication, and structure installation. The main purpose of risk assessment tool is to provide full protection to the four main elements that are crucial to the oil industry: People, Environment, Assets and Reputation (PEAR). The failure or defect in the risk assessment implementation in the construction stage can potentially lead to catastrophes in the advanced stages such as operation and productions. In oil and gas construction projects many historical oil spill and blow outs occurred due to a lack of efficient risk assessment in the construction phase, resulting in financial and human life losses. There are various factors that contribute to the implementation problem in the construction phase, thus, different aspects should be analyzed in the risk assessment structures to determine how the system is very closely linked. Through data analysis, it is evident that the weakness in the implementation can be related to inadequate policy and framework of the risk assessment. Organizational culture affecting employee safety behavior is another contributing reason for faulty implementation. Many scholars try to analyze the implementation problem in the oil and gas sector, along with other heavy industries, through risk regulations, risk planning and human error. This research exposes the defects and challenges in the risk assessment tool in oil and gas construction projects in UAE through a questionnaire survey. The research shows a gap in the understanding and practice of the risk assessment tool between management and operation, especially in the behavioral effects.

“…In order to create a structure or a construction product, the intervening parties execute a large number of processes converting the inputs into outputs; the different organizations and the project itself carry these processes (Schieg 2009). In both cases, they need to be specified and monitored if the desired level of quality of the output (outcome) is to be achieved.…”

In today’s world, the definition of quality has been extended to more comprehensive level, which also comprises sustainable performance. The paper systematically builds an integrated model that includes quality as well as sustainable performance of the built environment and accompanying construction processes. This model for the “Integrated Quality and Sustainability Performance Assessment in Construction” presents a three-level arrangement, namely: the structure, process/ project, and construction product. We propose a holistic sustainability assessment methodology based on the authors’ previous research work for structures. The strict implementation of quality and environmental management systems in the participating organisations and in the whole construction project guarantees quality and environmental performance at project/process level. On the construction product level, we complement the existing requirement of providing a statement of conformity for each product of the structure with the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for all construction products. We use the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology to obtain the EPDs for specific construction products; in this way, we can evaluate their environmental impacts throughout the life cycle of a product or structure. On the structure level, a model for the integrated sustainability and quality assessment, which was previously proposed by the authors, is employed. Integration of all three levels ensures that the desired plateau of quality and sustainability performance is achieved for structures, processes and products. In the present version, the model is tailored to the specific features of buildings, and the sustainability aspect is limited to the environmental performance. An investigation of measures required to implement the proposed model into practice shows that clients have a major influence upon the procurement rules. Consequently, the targeted audience of potential users is that of clients procuring buildings.

“…Generally, investment decisions on infrastructure projects are made by the public sector based on socio-economic evaluation (Tsamboulas, Kapros 2003;Schieg 2009). As the practice shows (Report of Public Private Partnerships 1997), PPP type projects need financial evaluation that takes into account uncertainties and the resulting risks.…”

abstract. One of the most important research objects in comprehensive theories of strategic management for theoreticians and representatives of logistics is making appropriate competitive strategic decisions and achieving a competitive advantage in dynamic and uncertain business environment. The aim of the topic is to create the conceptual model of evaluation of logistics centres establishment, which allows complex assessment of external and internal factors of competition of logistics centres. The proposed conceptual model of evaluation of logistics centres establishment consists of three main stages: identification of external and internal factors of logistics centre establishment; assessment of external and internal factors; estimation of external and internal factors. Different research methods were applied to reach the aim of the topic: analysis of scientific literature, comparative analysis, systems analysis, methods of conceptual synthesis, multiple criteria assessment, and expert evaluation.Keywords: logistics centre, establishment, external and internal factors, evaluation, conceptual model. 2010-11-18; priimta 2011-02-26 santrauka. Vienas iš pagrindinių šiuolaikinių strateginio valdymo mokslininkų ir verslo atstovų interesų objektų yra tinkamų konkuravimo strateginių sprendimų priėmimas bei konkurencinių pranašumų pasiekimas dinamiškoje ir neapibrėžtoje verslo aplinkoje. Probleminiai klausimai -ar organizacija pasirinks tinkamą konkuravimo strategiją ir dėl to sukurs konkurencinių pranašumų, priklauso nuo kompleksinio logistikos centro kūrimo išorinių ir vidinių veiksnių vertinimo. Šio straipsnio tikslassukurti koncepcinį logistikos centro kūrimo vertinimo modelį, kuris sudarytų prielaidas kompleksiškai įvertinti išorinius ir vidinius logistikos centro kūrimo veiksnius. Šio tyrimo rezultatas -koncepcinis logistikos centro kūrimo vertinimo modelis, kuris pasižymi integruotu logistikos centro kūrimo veiksnių (išorinių ir vidinių) vertinimu. Šio vertinimo rezultatai sudaro prielaidas formuoti, vertinti ir parinkti strateginius konkuravimo sprendimus. Tyrimo tikslui įgyvendinti taikyta mokslinės literatūros analizė, lyginamoji analizė, sisteminė analizė, sintezės metodai, daugiakriterinio vertinimo metodai, ekspertinis vertinimas.reikšminiai žodžiai: logistikos centras, steigimas, išoriniai ir vidiniai veiksniai, vertinimas, koncepcinis modelis.
