Research on Problems and Countermeasures in Engineering Cost Control under the EPC Mode
EPC模式下工程造价控制中存在的问题与对策研究

摘要

EPC工程总承包模式由于可以做到设计、采购、施工的高度结合从而大大提高了工作效率，节约建设时间，在我国的应用越来越广泛。但是这也给整个项目的成本控制带来了更大的挑战，传统的以时间为序的成本控制的方法已经不能满足需要。本文从EPC工程总承包的特点出发，总结出其成本控制的特点及应遵守的原则，然后分析EPC项目在投资决策、设计、采购施工以及合同风险管理等方面存在的成本控制问题。

Abstract

The EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) general contracting mode has been increasingly widely applied in China because it enables a high degree of integration among design, procurement, and construction, thereby substantially improving work efficiency and shortening construction time. However, it also poses greater challenges to overall project cost control, and traditional time-sequenced cost control methods can no longer meet practical needs. Based on the characteristics of EPC general contracting, this paper summarizes the features of cost control under this mode as well as the principles that should be followed. It then analyzes the cost control problems in EPC projects in such aspects as investment decision-making, design, procurement and construction, and contract risk management.
