Reengineering of territories and built-up areas: a conceptual framework

Abstract

Introduction. The development of built-up urban areas, aimed at improving the living arrangements and standards, is implemented within the boundaries of an element of a structural plan, as well as related elements. It is important, since it affects the interests of a substantial part of the country’s population. The achievement of the goals, pursued by the national projects and programmes as socio-economic development tools, depends directly on the effective development of built-up areas. The effective development of built-up areas involves comprehensive transformation and modernization of territories and buildings on the basis of the concept of reengineering of territories and built-up areas, including methods of effective and high-quality change management.
 Materials and methods. The subject of the study is a set of measures that ensure the qualitative transformation of engineering (technological) solutions and serve as the backbone structure of reengineering in construction. The object of the study is the process of qualitative transformation of technological (technical) solutions and business processes (management decisions). It is noted that the actual focus of transformation of territories and built-up areas is implemented in the course of actions, taken within the framework of reengineering of technological processes (technical solutions), including the stages of reconstruction, renovation, technical retooling, repurposing, and reclamation. The factors, influencing the reengineering of management solutions, are provided. Features of the composition and properties of the reengineering of territories and built-up areas, characteristic of its practical implementation, are presented. Research methods include structural and functional analyses.
 Results. Current fundamental differences in the nature of regulatory impacts accompanying the traditional type of restoration (modernization), as well as impacts, made within the framework of reengineering of territories and built-up areas, are described. The authors suggest that the integrated approach of impacts, made in the process of reengineering of territories and built-up areas, is conveyed in the relationship between “property development – capital construction facilities – a technological solution”, as well as the scope and intensity of impacts. The general framework for the concept, underlying the implementation of the reengineering of territories and built-up areas, is presented.
