Abstract |
This study integrated the planning and design stages of public buildings into one research scope, focusing on the domestic request for a
proposal system. The open call system in the Belgian province of Flanders has been continuously striving to improve the quality of public
buildings for more than 20 operating years. Through this system, several elegant public buildings were created there, ranging from
close-to-life small buildings to large buildings that serve as local landmarks. As a result of analyzing this operation, the following
implications for a proposal system request were derived. Further expanding the proposal competition to be applied to large-scale projects
without limiting the recommended size is necessary. When evaluating a proposal request, avoiding a scoring system and pursuing a voting
system is needed so that the evaluation effect of an architect's career and similar project performance is minimized, and innovative ideas can
be adopted. When organizing the judging committee and considering the domestic situation, the evaluation effect can be reviewed in the
order of organizational needs to participate as a jury member. The role and scope of work involving private experts should be expanded to
the planning and design stages before and after the request for a proposal system, so that they play an overall and leading role rather than
an auxiliary role. This study was meaningful in that it drew different implications from previous studies, such as the appropriate project size
of a proposal request, design competition period, evaluation and screening, and the role of private experts and government architects.
However, there was a limitation in that the implications related to the request for a proposal system were presented at the level of
improvements; a more detailed analysis of the problems of the request for a proposal system and research for realistic improvement plans
remain as future tasks |
