| Abstract |
This study examines directions for improving the Korean New Excellent Technology (NET) system in construction by analyzing its structural limitations and comparing it with Japan’s New Technology Information System (NETIS). To this end, the study reviewed relevant literature and institutional documents and conducted a written opinion survey of practitioners to examine the types, procedures, and post-designation management framework of the Korean NET system. The survey was used to identify recurring practical issues that are not easily captured through document analysis alone. The results indicate that the current system relies on a largely uniform procedure that does not sufficiently reflect differences in technology type and application conditions. In addition, the close linkage between technology designation and unit-price preparation constrains cost review, particularly for early-stage technologies with insufficient field data. Although post-evaluation and utilization records are in place, the tracking of productivity and economic performance remains limited. Based on these findings, this study proposes type-specific refinement of evaluation procedures, supplementary field-based verification for cost review, more flexible separation between technology designation and unit-price preparation, and stronger quantitative post-evaluation and economic monitoring. This study contributes by examining the Korean NET system as a continuous structure linking designation, evaluation, unit-price preparation, and post-management. |
