The objective of this paper is to suggest the improvement of estimating system for construction management (CM) service fee through the analysis of the previous literatures and criteria and case study. In order to do this, this paper considered the relevance of existing criteria to estimate the CM service fee, the condition of input ratio of engineering resources in the real cases, and current utilization strategy of nonresident technical engineers. Based on the analysis, the following problems were identified; a) the different estimating system for CM fee and construction supervision fee, b) impractical estimating system for the CM fee, and c) inappropriate allocation of human resources for CM. Consequently, this paper suggested the following 4 items for the improvement of the existing system; (1) modification of the current structure of CM fee calculation, (2) rationalization of current level of the CM fee which is required to be raised approximately 5.4 percent compared to design or supervision fee, (3) securement of elasticity of the input ratio of engineering resources from the inception phase, and (4) development of the utilization strategy of nonresident engineers based on the technical requirement of the jobsite. Thus, it is anticipated that this research would affect the compensation package of CM in order to make the estimation process of CM service fee more efficient and to revitalize CM as business.

On December, 1996, Construction Management(CM) was introduced in Korean construction industry due to its managerial efficiency proven in the international construction industries. However, It have had serious problems with many regulations, standards, manuals and details of practices considering its constituents and industry conditions. Especially, there were controversial points in the CM fee estimate; difference between the fee on the owner's view point and that from contractor's that impedes appropriate CM services. Therefore, this paper is to analyze public construction projects into Cm fee calculation such as fee as a percent of construction cost, cost plus fixed fee and contract price, and analyzed what is irrationality and why irrationality is made. So it makes a contribution to a study on standards for paper CM fee calculation.

As the Construction Technology Promotion Act was revised in 2015, the term of Supervision was removed and Construction Management was included instead. The consideration of Construction Management shall be based on the cost plus fee method specified in the Criteria for the Cost of Construction Technology Services of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. Nevertheless, it is based on the construction cost ratio in accordance with the Economy and Finance Ministry's Detailed Guidelines for Preparing the 2018 Budget Plan and Fund Management Plan (Manual for Business Type and Item). As a result, it has been expected that Construction Management consideration will be calculated according to a single government standard and that the Criteria will be applied reasonably. In addition, although the change in the Labor Standard Act has a significant effect on the working environment of the construction site, the nature of the construction site is not considered in this Act. Based on these problems, the study suggested that the government should apply a single standard after consultation with the relevant agencies when calculating the consideration for Construction management, that the scope of the Criteria for the Cost of Construction Technology Services should be clear, that the amount of input by the Construction Manager should be considered for the capability of engineers and the number of working days, and that construction characteristics should be considered when determining the number of working days and hours.

Recently The public project ordering is a tendency increasing of CM service because of the visible and affirmative effect in the CM which is advanced meanwhile. The CM services of project all phase excepts a planning business are performed. But recently the CM services of project all phase including a planning business are increasing every year. To develop CM must be prepared the system plans concerned with the CM application from planning phase, actuality maintenance of CM fee-estimation standard, understanding conversion of participation subjects, etc. But, unexpected actuality the problems occurs when the CM business is performing. The purpose of this study are to present the solution to the problems concerned with the planning business management, additional business by owner, schedule control and establish the plan to perform CM services efficiently in the public sector through analyzing the case of CM application in Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science & Technology.

Recently The public project ordering in local autonumous entities is a tendency increasing of CM service because of the visible and affirmative effect in the CM which is advanced meanwhile. And, the CM services of project all phase excepts a planning business are performed. To develop CM must be prepared the system plans concerned with the CM application from planning phase, actuality maintenance of CM fee-estimation standard, understanding conversion of participation subjects, the specialization through certification of CM qualification, etc. But, unexpected actuality the problems occurs when the CM business is performing. The purpose of this study are to present the solution to the problems concerned with the design management, design phase VE, additional business by owner, schedule control and establish the plan to perform CM services efficiently in the public sector through analyzing the case of CM application in Susung Culture & Art Center.
