RETRACTED: Allocation of control right between the participants of building information modeling–integrated project delivery project from the perspective of knowledge sharing

Abstract

The emergence of building information modeling technology has facilitated promotion and application of integrated project delivery mode, while reasonable allocation of control right is the key to dealing with opportunistic behavior during the knowledge sharing process of the building information modeling–integrated project delivery project. Replicator dynamics model from the perspective of knowledge sharing was established by means of evolutionary game, to analyze the evolutionarily stability strategy for allocation of control right between the owners and the professional technology companies. The research showed that, when the knowledge sharing benefit from innovation was more than the supervision cost for struggling for control right, two stably revolutionary strategies existed in the game system, namely contingent control and joint control; and the stably revolutionary status was under the influence of knowledge synergy coefficient, proportion of complementary knowledge, knowledge stock, degree of knowledge sharing, probability that the estimated operation status of the project was favorable, supervision cost, success probability of the project, etc. The research results provided a theoretical reference for the owners and the professional technology companies of building information modeling–integrated project delivery project in deciding whether to struggle for control right or not according to the observed information and the final benefit level.
