Built Environment Project and Asset Management (BEPAM) is a CIB-recognised journal that provides a niche forum to address interfaces between project management and asset management of building and civil engineering infrastructure
Aims and scope
Built Environment Project and Asset Management (BEPAM) deliberates on, disseminates and validates cutting-edge research and development in construction project management and infrastructure asset management, given the increasingly critical intersections and convergence between these domains, e.g. with increasing ‘whole life’ focus and sustainability imperatives. It connects both established and upcoming researchers with progressive practitioners in these fields and proactively links research and practitioner communities worldwide.

BEPAM targets interface issues between project management and asset management of building and civil engineering infrastructure, but also welcomes papers that may focus on either project management or asset management issues.

Target areas include but are not limited to the following:

Project planning and project impact assessments
Infrastructure demand analysis (with emphasis on sustainability)
Stakeholder management (including appropriate engagement)
Procurement management (with longer-term criteria, e.g. in public-private partnerships etc.)
Design management (including whole-life considerations)
Construction management (including whole-life considerations)
Infrastructure and societal needs
Sustainable infrastructure and life cycle optimisation
Critical infrastructure protection and disaster mitigation management
Preventive maintenance, asset rehabilitation and replacement management.
