LH Improves Material and Construction Method Selection System for Civil Engineering and Landscaping Works

[Asia Economy Reporter Chunhee Lee] Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) announced on the 19th that it has improved the 'Material·Construction Method Selection System' to enhance fairness and transparency in the selection of major materials and construction methods applied to civil engineering and landscaping works.

Following the announcement in February through the 'LH Technology Innovation Partner Mall' of the selection plan for 561 materials and construction methods to be used in about 90 civil engineering and landscaping projects this year, LH plans to promote efficient committee operation and fair company selection through improvements in the evaluation and operation methods of the Material·Construction Method Selection Committee.

First, the existing multi-vote selection method, where selection could be made with only a few votes per committee member, was improved to a comprehensive scoring evaluation method by all committee members to increase rationality. Along with this, to activate new construction technologies and support innovative companies with excellent technologies, it was made mandatory to include at least one new technology selected by LH among the materials·construction methods under review. Additionally, more than 50% of the committee members are to be composed of external members, and the list of members and evaluation results will be disclosed to ensure that the material·construction method selection process is operated more fairly and transparently.

Furthermore, through a bidding process using the LH Technology Innovation Partner Mall, any company interested in the construction work will be able to participate in the bidding, providing fair participation opportunities to small and medium-sized enterprises possessing excellent technologies.

The revised contents will be available for review through the LH Technology Innovation Partner Mall starting from the 21st.

Kang Dong-ryeol, Head of LH Construction Technology Headquarters, stated, "We plan to continuously identify problems arising during the operation of the Material·Construction Method Selection Committee and actively strive to establish a fair construction culture."
