Abstract

Modular construction (MC) plays a pivotal role in fostering sustainable development. However, the promotion of MC in many jurisdictions has been encumbered by its prevailing undeveloped supply chain. This study aims to systematically explore the drivers, opportunities, constraints, concerns, strategies, and measures with regard to enhancing the MC supply chain, using the empirical case of modular integrated construction in Hong Kong and the supply chain in the Greater Bay Area of China. The research was conducted through the combination of a literature review, a questionnaire survey with 244 effective responses, and 46 expert interviews. A systematic framework with foremost drivers, opportunities, constraints, concerns, strategies, and measures is proposed for guiding MC supply chain enhancement from technical, political and regulatory, socio-economic, and geographical perspectives. The findings contribute to better understanding the complexity and dynamics of the MC supply chain and guide stakeholders to work collaboratively for supply chain enhancement.

加强模块化建筑供应链：驱动因素、机遇、制约因素、关注问题、战略和措施

模块化建筑（MC）在促进可持续发展方面发挥着举足轻重的作用。然而，由于模块化建筑供应链普遍不发达，许多国家在推广模块化建筑方面受到了阻碍。本研究旨在以香港的模块化集成建筑和中国大湾区的供应链为实证案例，系统地探讨加强模块化集成建筑供应链的驱动因素、机遇、制约因素、关注点、策略和措施。研究结合了文献综述、244 份有效问卷调查和 46 次专家访谈。研究提出了一个系统框架，包括最重要的驱动因素、机遇、制约因素、关注点、战略和措施，从技术、政治和监管、社会经济和地理角度指导管委会供应链的提升。研究结果有助于更好地了解摩托罗拉供应链的复杂性和动态性，并指导利益相关者为加强供应链开展合作。
