Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often said that in order to know where we are going, we need to know where we have been. For some years the construction industry has been challenged to deliver better performance in terms of value for money, timelier construction and defect free building. Behind this remodelling of an industry is Government. The interest by Government is not new, and report after report in the post war period has exhorted the industry to perform better. This book documents how Government, through influential reports, has sought to shape the performance and attitudes of parties to the construction industry. It provides a critical review of 12 of the most significant, setting these against their political, social and economic background, and offers a ready reference and critique for researchers of construction management, government and economics.

Download or read book Corruption and Racketeering in the New York City Construction Industry written by New York State Organized Crime Task Force and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Corruption and Racketeering In The New York City Construction Industry: The Final Report of the New York State Organized Task Force, lays out in close and compelling detail the intricate patterns of currupt activities and relationships that for the better part of a century have characterized business as usual in the construction industry in America's largest metropolis. The book is the end product of more than five years' worth of investigation, prosecutions, and research by the New York State Organized Crime Task Force, a unique agency that has set a national example for marrying law enforcement initiatives with comprehensive and exhausting analysis of the causes and dynamics of industrial racketeering. This is a sobering analysis of the construction industry , one of New York City's largest industries, and in effect, one of the city's most significant economic sectors. In any given year during the 1980s, billions of dollars of construction were being carried out at any one time. The industry regularly employs more than 100,000 people in the city, involving some one hundred union locals and many hundreds of general and specialty contractors as well as a large number of architects, engineers, and materials suppliers. The book shows—in great and provocative detail—how organized extortion, bribery illegal cartels, and bid rigging characterize construction in the city. The basis for much of this crim is labor racketeering, controlled or orchestrated by organized crime. It reveals how this world of corruption affects not only the private sector but the city's vast public works program, and it spells out the ways in which both organized crime and official corruption each sustain the dynamics of ongoing criminality. Wrong-doing on a massive scale is documented at length. But this book is more than a recitation of extensive and systematic criminality. The book recommends a number of plausible options for genuine reform. Necessarily these are profound and radical solutions, but everyone who reads this book will conclude that only profound and radical solutions could hope to solve such an entrenched and intractable crime problem.

Book excerpt: This paper seeks to define the construction industry, understand current conditions, and determine industry trends as they relate to the generation of US national power. It reviews several challenges confronting the construction industry and the role of government in overcoming these challenges. Four essays are included to provide a deeper examination of several issues. The construction industry is a powerful engine for the U.S. economy; as a basic industry, it provides the infrastructure that creates strength and stability in our national Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The industry is composed primarily of many small companies specializing in local work. The few large firms concentrate on the mega projects both domestically and internationally. The success of both sectors is vital to our national interests. The vitality of small businesses in the construction industry creates jobs, fuels the economy, and enhances the quality of life for all Americans. Meanwhile the ability of the large US firms to compete globally is an essential element in our projection of national power overseas. In 2004, construction continued to track towards a healthy and moderately profitable industry despite clouds looming on the horizon. The major source of growth in the US market has been in the residential sector. The growth in the residential construction outpaced growth in the other sectors of the industry although rising interest rates may put a damper on this trend. A rise in non-residential construction should offset the decline in residential building and allow the industry's growth to continue. Challenges facing the construction industry in the future include a slowing economy due to rising interest rates, chronic shortages of skilled and semi-skilled labor, and increasing prices for fuel, health insurance, and construction materials. Overall, the industry should remain healthy in 2005 and is capable of surging to meet critical national security needs.

Book excerpt: This paper captures a comprehensive 5-month study of the construction industry. It seeks to define the industry and identifies current conditions and industry trends. It reviews several challenges confronting the industry and examines the role of government in shaping its future and overcoming these obstacles. Three essays provide a deeper examination of several issues relevant to the industry today. The highly competitive construction industry is a powerful engine for the U.S. economy, providing strength and stability to the U.S. national Gross Domestic Product (GDP). A healthy construction industry creates jobs, fuels the economy, enhances the quality of life for Americans, and is an essential component of national security. In 2003, construction continued to track its performance as a generally healthy and moderately profitable industry. The construction industry grew at a moderate pace in the last year despite a weakening economy and chronic shortages of skilled and semi-skilled labor. The economic stimulus package, a rebounding economy, and continued low interest rates fueled unprecedented increases in housing construction and helped stimulate modest commercial construction. Value in the industry remains strong with projections for limited growth prospects domestically and potentially significant opportunities in the international sector. Industry data shows evidence of a continuing trend toward consolidation through acquisitions and mergers, forcing smaller construction-related companies to increase their productivity to remain competitive. This trend is driving an accelerated use of information technology tools to improve efficiency. As state and local governments find it increasingly difficult to raise revenues to build and maintain needed infrastructure, alternative financing mechanisms involving private financing of public infrastructure are becoming more widespread.
