Abstract
This paper presents a practical tool for articulating best value criteria during the procurement of public-sector building projects in Korea. Data is obtained from sampling 180 stakeholders drawn mainly from a pool of government construction and project management experts in the Republic of Korea. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is employed to rank emergent value criteria. The study finds that best value judgments are (1) multi-faceted assessments of stakeholder most needs; (2) mitigated by project characteristics; and (3) span functional and aesthetic considerations.
