Vigorously developing the engineering cost consulting industry, promoting the socialization and specialization of the engineering cost consulting industry, and transforming the engineering cost consulting activities from government behavior to enterprise behavior are the needs of the development of China's socialist market economy and the direction of the reform and development of today's engineering cost management. Whether the management and supervision mechanism of engineering cost consulting institutions and their employees' professional level, work quality and professional ethics is sound plays a key role in the formation and effective control of engineering cost, and also affects the legitimate rights and interests of all parties involved in the construction, and even affects the competitive order of the whole construction market. Therefore, it is necessary to further standardize the behavior of engineering cost consulting institutions and strengthen the supervision and management of engineering cost consulting institutions.
Second, the main problems existing in the practice of current engineering cost consulting institutions
Due to the inertia of the long-term planned economy management system, the engineering cost consulting industry under the market economy system is still in a mature stage, the market competition mechanism needs to be further established and improved, and the management of the consulting intermediary market needs to be further standardized, mainly in the following aspects:
1. Some engineering cost consulting institutions have not really won the trust of customers by improving their professional technical level and service quality. In the process of consulting business contracting, a considerable number of enterprises have a weak sense of competition, lack of service awareness, lax work and low efficiency. The internal management of some engineering cost consulting institutions is chaotic, and there are miscalculations, omissions and recalculations in the editing process, and the quality of consulting business results is poor. Individual employees take advantage of their positions, collude with construction enterprises to overestimate and take risks, and even undertake tasks in a way that is seriously lower than the industry charging standard. These phenomena undoubtedly have a negative impact on the cultivation and development of engineering cost consulting industry.
2. The consulting ability of the whole process of project cost is low. With the continuous improvement of China's socialist market economic system and project bidding system, today's construction market has formed a diversified market subject, and the valuation activities of project cost also extend forward and backward with the development of project construction, running through the whole process of project construction. However, the service content of most engineering cost consulting institutions is greatly limited by their own systems. Many engineering cost consulting institutions only engage in budget cost (pre-tender estimate) preparation and settlement audit, while others, such as feasibility study, project economic evaluation and project cost process management, are basically not carried out.
3. Engineering cost practitioners and comprehensive high-quality talents are scarce. Engineering cost consultation is a highly technical specialty, involving engineering construction, law, economy and other fields. Therefore, the practitioners engaged in engineering cost consultation should be compound talents with knowledge of economy, law and management based on engineering cost specialty. At present, the main bodies engaged in project cost consultation are cost engineers and project budget officers, but these personnel generally lack systematic economic, commercial and legal knowledge.
4. It is difficult to supervise the engineering cost consulting institutions. Our province's engineering cost consulting institutions have been decoupled and restructured, and there are some problems, such as irregular internal management, unstable professional team, part-time nominal, weak risk awareness, poor sense of responsibility, and serious reduction of charging standards. It is very difficult to supervise these problems at present. With the promulgation of "Management Measures for Engineering Cost Consulting Units", engineering cost consulting institutions will be brought into the track of legalization of management and standardization of behavior in the future.
Three, to further strengthen the supervision and management of engineering cost consulting institutions.
Further strengthening the supervision and management of engineering cost consulting institutions is a challenge faced by the cost management department under the new situation and a reform task entrusted by the times.
1. Establish an effective supervision system and constantly standardize the practice of engineering cost consulting institutions.
(1) Improve the credit file system of engineering cost consulting institutions.
Establish credit files of engineering cost consulting institutions and employees, improve the level of integrity, comprehensively record and evaluate their good behaviors and bad behaviors in business activities, and publish them on the information platform, so as to encourage trustworthy behaviors, punish untrustworthy behaviors, create a good mechanism and environment for the integrity of the construction industry intermediary market, and promote the voluntary compliance of engineering cost consulting employees to form good professional ethics.
(2) Establish a liability compensation system.
After decoupling and restructuring, engineering cost consulting institutions must establish a system of liability compensation in addition to industry self-discipline and integrity, so as to increase the unfair cost of engineering cost consulting institutions and restrain their behavior. Referring to international practice, we should also establish a "professional liability insurance" system to promote risk awareness, because after the implementation of the bill of quantities pricing model, engineering cost consulting institutions will face more risks, especially some engineering cost consulting with high new technology content and complex project characteristics, which is even more risky.
(3) promoting the guarantee system
When the cost consulting organization competes to undertake business, it shall provide a letter of guarantee issued by financial or other guarantee institutions. Because the financial institutions that provide guarantees will carefully examine the affordability and credit status of intermediary units and decide whether to give guarantees, this will prompt intermediary units to strive to improve their professional quality, service quality and corporate reputation.
(4) Establish a spot check system for listing quality.
It will play a positive social role to establish a spot check system for the quality of inventory preparation of engineering cost consulting institutions, and to conduct regular or irregular spot checks and evaluations on the quality of inventory preparation of engineering cost consulting institutions, so as to safeguard the main interests of all parties in engineering construction, strengthen the self-discipline of engineering cost consulting industry, and urge engineering cost consulting institutions and their employees to improve their professional level.
2, the project cost management department at the same time to do a good job in various social services.
(1) Continue to do a good job in the continuing education and training of cost practitioners, so that the vast number of cost practitioners can change their concepts in time, master the reform of project cost valuation, update their knowledge structure and improve their comprehensive quality, so as to meet the requirements of valuation reform and be competent for their own work under the new situation.
(2) Help the cost consulting unit to establish the enterprise cost database reflecting the market reality. According to the requirements and relevant provisions of the bill of quantities valuation specification, the engineering consumption quota and comprehensive unit price valuation method of each major. , combined with the actual situation in the region, the formation of the comprehensive unit price of common projects of enterprises, enterprises in the cost consulting activities according to the actual situation of the project to make appropriate adjustments.
(3) Accelerate the pace of informatization construction of construction project cost management, realize the sharing of information resources, improve the quality of information service, and build a solid information platform for the healthy and rapid development of engineering cost consulting industry.
In recent years, in the supervision of engineering cost consulting institutions, there is less direct administrative intervention, greater macro-control and stronger market regulation mechanism, which is obviously the result of recent reforms. However, compared with international advanced concepts and management methods, there is still a gap between the management and development of China's engineering cost consulting industry and the requirements of market economy development. We need to continue our efforts to explore how to use market means to guide and strengthen supervision, standardize the practice of engineering cost, and maintain the stable and orderly development of the construction market.
