Abstract | Infrastructure is important to creating a dynamic and attractive economic environment in communities in the world. It is more important to nations’ future development and plays an important role in creating and enhancing sustainable living conditions. Therefore, the planning, design and construction of full infrastructure system is of vital significance in developed and developing countries and in rural and urbans areas, as it supports and connects our commu nities. In recent years, the construction market has been swiftly blooming, especially the real - estate market in Vietnam. Thousands of the residential regions have been sprouting in the metropolis . This is one of significant reason, why the government and the local authorities are attempting to invest and improve infrastructure system. This reason not only creating the enormous market for construction consultancies but also raising these challenges for owners for man aging these ones in design. Additionally, the owners have been facing the complexity of these infrastructure projects more and more. However, the role, the accountability and the involvement of owner and consultant in each phase is unc lear. Additionally, the design manager is not enough skills to meet the requirement of infrastructure project. As a result, the delay of pre - construction phase and the poor quality of existing buildings as witnessed by the process of bad design management. The main reason of this study is to conduc t an intensive exploration and into the most problematic design administration areas and to seek the involvement of owner and consultant and their skills as desi gn manager in pre - construction phase for complex infrastructure projects in Vietnam, and assist owner and consultant coming across appropriate solution and precise recommendations to develop them. Analysis of a case study in Vietnam su ggests that owners requires careful planning, innovative managerial approaches, attention to behavioral issues, suitable communication and information technologies, and common understanding of parties' roles and responsibilities. |
