3. Institutionalization of One-PMIS Use

22

Institutionalization of One-PMIS UseHow Seoul Has Done- Recommends the use of One-PMIS for all of its construction projects whose total budget exceeds KRW 20 million won, or about USD 18,000.

- Runs a monthly training program for its users and provides

user support through the operation of a call center, offering remote support service and providing online

manual service.

- Seoul has decided (in May 2016) to add a dedicated clause into

the “Special Conditions” section of its construction con-tracts,

making the use of One-PMIS mandatory for the contract-holders.

23

Institutionalization of One-PMIS UseRecommendation for other countries

-Enact a national law for the mandatory use of its own con-struction management system as part of reform efforts.

-This would minimize the difficulties in the enforcement and accelerate the implementation speed.
