Seoul City Invites Public Applications for 'Construction Technology Review Committee' Members to Assess Project Appropriateness

The Seoul Metropolitan Government announced on the 27th that it will publicly recruit members for the 19th Construction Technology Review Committee until the 30th of next month, in order to enhance the quality of design and construction in public works projects.

The Seoul Construction Technology Review Committee is a statutory body established under the Construction Technology Promotion Act. The committee reviews the validity of designs, the safety of structures, and the appropriateness of project implementation for various construction projects carried out by the city, its affiliated organizations, and district offices.

The 19th Seoul Construction Technology Review Committee will be composed of a total of 230 members, including the ex officio chairperson (the Second Vice Mayor for Administrative Affairs), the vice chairperson (Director of Construction Technology Policy), and 228 experts across 20 specialized fields. The committee will operate for two years, from March 1, 2025, to February 29, 2028. Of the 228 appointed members, approximately 30% will be current committee members and around 70% will be newly appointed.

The city plans to expand opportunities for participation by experts from various fields by publicly recruiting new candidates through its website and other channels. In addition to individual applications, recommendations will be accepted from professional engineering associations, academic societies, universities, research institutes, and public institutions. New committee members will be selected through a three-stage process.

Kim Seungwon, Director of Construction Technology Policy at the Seoul Metropolitan Government, stated, "Through the effective operation of the Construction Technology Review Committee, we have consistently improved the quality and technological standards of construction projects. We hope to see strong interest and applications from experts with extensive experience and insight from various sectors."
