Malaysia is making an aggressive effort of transformation to become a fully developed country. As one of the pillars for transformation, the construction industry has been undergoing a major reform with regard to the traditional method of construction. In recent years, the Industrialised Building System (IBS) has been promoted extensively with the government taking a lead with the practice. Studies showed that IBS has been able to expedite construction process, improve the time taken to accomplish a project, improve building quality, able to control cost and human resources, which in overall, raise occupational health and safety standard of construction. Despite, as most IBS projects were carried out under the traditional procurement method, the full benefits of IBS are somehow obscured. Several issues such as work delay, lack of communication and integration, lack of knowledge and an increase in cost, which are synonymous to the traditional procurement method appear to outweigh the benefit of IBS. Hence, this research aims to suggest an alternative to the traditional procurement method with regard to IBS project implementation. The focus of this research has been on the challenges and innovative procurement methods most suited for IBS project. Two objectives were outlined: (1) to identify issues faced by the client on current procurement method in IBS project; and (2) to identify the client’s perspective on innovative procurement method most suited for IBS project. Data for this research was collected through semi-structured interviews with five respondents from five major developers having experience in IBS project implementation. The results from the thematic analysis revealed that apart from the common issues which ascend from the sequential nature of the traditional procurement method, design integration issue was opined to aggravate the situation. Unanimously, respondents agreed that partnering is the way forward for IBS project implementation in the Malaysian construction industry. This research contributes by providing important pointers for the local construction industry to move forward with IBS project implementation.

“…The existing research in this area has focused mostly on analyzing the competitive effect (Pavel & Kubík, 2011). According to the classic theory of contracts, a higher level of competition has an impact on the contract price (Halonen, 2016; Pavel & Slavík, 2018; Takano, 2017). We suppose that repeated contracts are more expensive than one-time purchases.…”

This article deals with the phenomenon of repeated contracts, specifically the effect of trust in public contracts. Our main objective is to identify the factors that influence the concluding of repeated contracts and to verify whether repeated contracts lead to increases in prices. We use a complex dataset of public procurement of municipalities in the Czech Republic for the period of 2014-2017, which covers more than 4,000 public contracts. This range of data allows a larger number of variables to be applied, including specific independent variables concerning municipalities, such as the size of the municipality. The data allow us to study this subject by means of both a general model tested on all public contracts and a partial model applied to public works. The presented results of quantitative econometric models from the data obtained from the awards of public contracts in the municipalities of the Czech Republic show that the fact of whether it was a repeated contract or a contract performed by a new (unknown to a contracting authority) supplier affected the chance of winning a contract.

“…Está conformada por aproximadamente 25 asentamientos de distintas características en relación a su grado de consolidación; su dotación de servicios básicos; su reconocimiento legal; su condición de riesgo físico y sus niveles socioeconómicos y de desarrollo humano (Strauch, Takano y Hordijk, 2015). Debido a una situación previa de inviabilidad social, se optó porque sea LAMSAC la que ejecute el proceso en lugar de la Municipalidad (Takano, 2017). Al tratarse de una APP autofi nanciada, LAMSAC tuvo la potestad de implementar su propia política de reasentamiento, no estando requerida de ejecutar un Plan de Compensación y Reasentamiento Involuntario (PACRI), obligatorio por ley para proyectos fi nanciados con fondos públicos y alineado con buenas prácticas internacionales.…”

“…No obstante, la implementación de mecanismos de participación en DIDR aún se entiende como algo meramente retórico y no negociable (Oliver-Smith, 2006). Eso también es sintomático de los mecanismos de APP, que tienden a subfi nanciar los aspectos sociales del desarrollo de infraestructura en general, ya que a diferencia de los proyectos públicos o aquellos fi nanciados por la banca de fomento, estos no requieren ajustarse a los estándares del DIDR, ya que su casi único objetivo es el retorno económico (Strauch et al, 2015;Takano, 2017). La incorporación de regulaciones e instrumentos de gestión social tales como los PACRI, no deben limitarse solo a los proyectos de inversión pública sino extenderse al universo de las APP y proyectos privados.…”

Las dinámicas de reestructuración metropolitana vienen acompañadas de procesos tales como el reasentamiento involuntario de la población, que, si bien se espera se den a cambio de equiparar o mejorar condiciones de vida preexistentes, han tendido a intensifi car situaciones de vulnerabilidad. El artículo se enfoca en el reasentamiento generado por el megaproyecto de transporte "Línea Amarilla", localizado en Lima, Perú. Utilizando métodos cuantitativos y cualitativos se procesó información actual y retrospectiva sobre el reasentamiento en el complejo de vivienda "Patio Unión", con el objetivo de medir las variaciones en las condiciones de las
