Features: In 1991, over 100 experts from Lehigh University in the United States, supported by the U.S. Department of Defense and 13 renowned enterprises, submitted the 21st Century Manufacturing Strategy Report to Congress. In this report, the new concept of dynamic alliances was proposed, attracting global attention. In the rapidly evolving knowledge economy era, where markets change swiftly and technological development and innovation accelerate, dynamic alliances are one of the best response models, which has been recognized by many scholars and entrepreneurs. In recent years, this unique collaboration model has been adopted by more and more industries. Especially in current engineering construction projects, with ever-increasing investment scales and higher technical requirements for construction industry standards, relying solely on a single construction enterprise can no longer organize the necessary resources. In such cases, forming large specialized construction teams through dynamic alliances has become an inevitable model. Dynamic alliances are a cutting-edge model in international project management, and their effectiveness has been proven by major foreign engineering companies. However, few books connect dynamic alliances with project management practices. This book, set against the practical background of the Runyang Yangtze River Highway Bridge project by the China Harbor Group's Second Harbor Bureau, elaborates on the structure and types of dynamic alliances, their relationship with the three major controls of project management, communication, coordination, and conflict resolution, information management, corporate culture, and incentive mechanisms. It systematically introduces the application of dynamic alliances in the organization and management of engineering projects. Each chapter is accompanied by practical cases, and the book concludes with a case study of the Runyang Yangtze River Highway Bridge project. Target Audience: Project management professionals, especially those in engineering project management, and related researchers.
