The aim of this text is to discuss and to develop the concept of
technology management in relation to the empirical field of
construction projects. In the first of the two main sections
central theories and their derived assertions concerning
technology management criteria are summed up in a schematic
theoretical framework. Hereafter the general characteristics of
construction are examined from the point of view of serving as an
empirical field for technology management analysis. In the second
section the technology management theme is associated with the
empirical properties of the Great Belt Fixed Link construction
project. Finally on this basis the concluding remarks are pointing
to the main theoretical problems and their practical
implementations for the introduction of a technology management
discipline in construction.
