Study On Resource Allocation Of Multi-project Management In The Construction Enterprise Groups

With the social economic development and infrastructure investment increasing, the construction engineering projects contracted by the Construction Enterprise Groups are large, complex, and there are many phases, hiberarchies, activities and partners in them . The activities are complicate and the processes are very difficult. They must share funds, materials, manpower, equipment and other resource with other construction engineering projects in the whole groups at the same time. As the limited resources can not be allocated effectively, the construction engineering projects are often difficult to be completed on time, which leads to enormous losses.Analyzed the reasons of losing control in the plan of multi-projects in the Construction Enterprise Groups, absorbed the main idea of Multi-Project Management, adopted the objective requirements of multi-projects schedule controlling and resources allocation among construction engineering projects in the Construction Enterprise Groups , Study on Resources Allocation of Multi-projects Management in the Construction Enterprise Groups was proposed, and it mainly consists of the following five aspects:Studied Multi-project Management, especially Project Portfolio Management, absorbed the typical multi-project management mechanism of the Construction Enterprise Groups at home and abroad, Multi-project Management Mechanism of the Construction Enterprise Groups was proposed and set up. It was analysed from two aspects: Organization Structure and Management Hiberarchy. And the key factors were pointed out from four aspects: Comprehensive Budget and Centralization Allocation of Founds , Centralization Purchase of Equipment and Staple-Special Material , Project/Program/Portfolio Management Office, Distributed-Cooperated Controlling Platform. Distributed-Cooperated System of Multi-Projects Schedule was proposed. It consisted of Master Schedule, Total Plan, Sub Plan, Phase Pan and Weekly Work. And Distributed-Cooperated Developing Mechanism of Multi-Projects Schedule was also proposed and set up, strengthening effective communication among all participators, and making developing and executing of the schedule be closely.Integration Model of Construction Engineering Quantity List and Schedule of Construction Engineering Project was set up. It defined the relationship of statistical time range and process, designed the functional relationship model of resource and process, so the phased resources requirement could be intellective counted. Distributed-Cooperated Capital Requirements Plan, Distributed-Cooperated Equipment Plan and Distributed-Cooperated Material Plan were proposed. And the three kinds of plan were analised deeply from plan system, developing mechanism and developing flow.The Centralized Allocating Capital Model and the Centralized Allocating Equipment Model were set up to allocate the founds and equipment more effectively, and service the multi-project best in the whole groups. And Schedule Optimization Model of Multi-projects in the Limit of Many Kinds of Resources was also set up to allocate the important resources only in the sub companies. Resource Portfolio Management was adopted to evaluate the allocation effect of capital, equipment and materials, and make better advice and measures for the next phase allocation of the key resource.In order to provide a technical platform for the distributed-cooperated plan and centralized allocation of the key resources, Distributed-Cooperated and Integrated Platform of Construction Enterprise Groups (DCIPCEG) was proposed and designed. And then the key subsystems, including Distributed-Cooperated Schedule System, Equipment Management System, Material Management System, and Resource Allocation Evaluation System, were designed from data flow, business operation flow, structure and function. A case was studied, which approved that DCIPCEG was an effective technical tool for distributed-cooperated resources plan and centralized allocation in the Construction Enterprises Groups.Through this study, Multi-Projects Management Mechanism of the Construction Enterprise Groups was proposed and set up. Three innovative researches, including Distributed-Cooperated Developing Mechanism, Distributed-Cooperated Plan of the Key Resources, and Centralized Allocation of the Key Resources, were studied. DCIPCEG was analysed and designed to provide an effective tool for the key resource plan and allocation of multi-projects in the Construction Enterprise Groups.
