- Abstract
- The shifting of many engineering resources from owners to contractors for project planning and execution has created a problem in toady's construction industry; corporate-level and project-level work structures are increasingly difficult to organize. "Core competencies," or essential areas of expertise, need to be identified and appropriate responsibilities assigned so that corporations have a competitive advantage in the global market. The solution to the problem of work structures can be found in CII Implementation Resource 111-2, "Owner/Contractor Work Process Handbook." A summary of the research that led to that publication is presented here.
