Research on Influencing Factors of Selecting Construction Agent Based on Project Governance

Agent construction system to non-profit government investment project has just been launched in China, and many issues are to be settled urgently, one of which is the selection of construction agent. Some problems of selecting construction agent are found by statistical analyses, such as the lack of the selection procedure regulation, evaluation information disclosure, and so on. Solving the above problems by introducing project governance, this paper analyzes the competence of government supervision and project characteristics from internal governance, and analyzes the competence of construction agent and the maturity of agent construction market from external governance. Then the strategies of the selecting construction agent are given. Furthermore, considering the defect of agent market and the reduction in searching costs, construction agent list based on reputation mechanism of external governance should be established, which is a valid way to make up for the defect resulting from immature agent market.
