摘要:AbstractChina has been developing very fast for more than 30 years. Its construction industry played a very important role in the whole developing process. In order to find out the reasons and processes that make China construction industry developed so fast in the last 30 years, we started two research projects that are funded by China Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Construction and China Ministry of Education. We found that there are three management paradigms or dominate modes changes in the last 30 years’ fast development for China construction industry and its project management. At the first management paradigm change in 1980s, they mainly use the internal contract management of their own companies instead of the old planning economy construction management method to increase the productivity of construction projects. At the second management paradigm change, they mainly use the marketing mechanism and competition in the construction industry to raise the efficiency of construction industry. In the last management paradigm change, they mainly relied on the innovation of the technology and management for construction projects in order to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness.
