dc.description.abstract | Technology is an integral part of
construction and domain factor with cost. Most
of modern materials, plant, equipment and
services are innovated by developed countries
and their aim is to transfer them by one way
through funding facilities to other countries. Sri
Lankan government pleases to obtain foreign
funded in order to develop most of infrastructure
and buildings in order to cater for economic
growth and living standard which would answer
somewhat on socio-economic issues in the
present conditions. One of the positive outcomes
on foreign funding is the technology transfer. The
study aims to define the potential impact on that
and assessing them could cater for best decision
to do in future endurances. The direct population
was stakeholders who are in construction
projects and selected sampling (experts) was by
snowball technique. The Quantitative and
qualitative methods were applied for data
collection in the mode of questionnaire and semi structured interview. The SPSS computer
software applied in order to check validation of
data and to give reliability of findings. The
content analysis had been used for synthesis
evaluation.
The literature review shows positive effects as
well as potential negative effects on foreign
technology transfer on other countries as well.
The outcome of findings reveal that arrival of
modern goods, latest methods of execution,
sophisticated computer software modeling and
simulating, innovative management procedures
as positive impact. The lack of development in
supported industry (example, e-commerce in
legal trade) and upgrading is required on
education on theory and training which derive a
negative impact on technology transfer. Finally,
the recommendations have been put forward to
minimize the potential negative impact areas
and identify more opportunities cost on positive
impact areas on stakeholders’ future projects | en_US |
