Construction industry is the pillar industry of the national economy, but "big but not strong" has always been the "chronic disease" of China's construction industry. Building a high standard market system is an important driving force to promote the high quality development of construction industry. Only open market circulation, dredge policy plugging point, through artery circulation, promoting the market quality, and the efficiency, the system of the foundation of market system, operating efficiency, openness, regulatory system and so on with high quality development requirements of the quality, efficiency, dynamic change to match the change, that can make construction from "quantity" to "mass" jump.
We will remove market access barriers
We will create a level playing field in the construction market
On January 22, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development issued a notice on the Governance work concerning the Establishment of sub-companies for Construction Enterprises undertaking trans-regional business, stressing that construction enterprises shall not be required or disguised to set up sub-companies for trans-regional business; For the existence of relevant problems, to rectify immediately.
As early as 2017, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the State Administration of Taxation and other departments jointly issued the Opinions on Further Improving the Pilot Work of Replacing Business Tax with VAT in the Construction Industry, stating that "resolutely break down regional market access barriers, and strictly prohibit non-local construction enterprises from setting up branches or subsidiaries in a disguised form." In 2018, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development issued the Notice on Special Inspection on The Supervision and Management of Inter-provincial Construction Enterprises, focusing on whether local governments have cancelled the record management system, implemented the information reporting system, and required non-local enterprises to register and set up independent subsidiaries or branches in their own regions. In 2019, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development issued a Notice on Supporting the Development of Private Construction Enterprises, reiterating that private construction enterprises should not be required to register and set up independent subsidiaries or branches in the region.
It has been a long time since construction enterprises were required to set up sub-companies for trans-regional contracting business. Some local governments have forced construction companies to set up local branches or subsidiaries in order to keep more tax sources in the area. In fact, according to the current regulations, construction projects in other places need to pay VAT in advance at the rate of 2% or 3%, and enterprise income tax in advance at the rate of 0.2% of actual income, which has played a role in balancing the financial interests of various regions. In addition, the enterprise income tax project profits of the establishment of branch companies cannot be paid locally, but adopt the methods of unified calculation, hierarchical management, local pre-payment, summary liquidation and financial adjustment to calculate the enterprise income tax. Therefore, even if a branch company is set up, if the parent company loses money or the weight of various factors of the project is low, there will be no local corporate income tax or little tax.
In short, the establishment of a branch or subsidiary company will greatly increase the accounting cost of the enterprise, limiting the fair competition of construction enterprises. It is beneficial to build a good construction market environment, promote the free flow of enterprises, and promote the sustainable and healthy development of the construction industry to solve the problem of establishing sub-companies for trans-regional contracting business.
Construction workers' real name management system
We will standardize labor order in the construction market
For a long time, irregular employment is one of the accumulated evils in China's construction industry. The threshold of construction industry is relatively low, "to be able to bear hardships on the line". Some "miscreants" lack qualifications and can muddle through. In this way, not only to the construction of risk, but also to the quality of the project buried hidden trouble.
With the implementation of the Management Measures for Real-name System of Construction Workers (Trial) (hereinafter referred to as the Management Measures), the construction industry has formally entered the era of real-name system for workers. In December 2020, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and other 12 departments jointly issued the Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the Training of Workers in the Construction Industry in the New Era, which will end the extensive employment mode of "zero, scattered and disorderly" that has lasted for many years, and the disorder in the construction labor market has been gradually curtailed.
In Jiangsu province, it is clear that the construction general contracting enterprises (or project general contracting enterprises) are responsible for the real-name management of construction sites. For construction enterprises in arrears of construction workers' wages, the proportion of construction workers' wage deposit payment shall be increased in accordance with regulations, and relevant bad behaviors shall be recorded in enterprise or individual credit files. In Jiangxi province, the real-name system is taken as an important measure to guarantee the payment of migrant workers' wages and standardize the system of construction labor and employment, basically realizing the implementation of the real-name system for construction workers in all newly started housing construction and municipal engineering projects in the province. In Qinghai, the real-name information management system for construction workers has been implemented for housing construction and municipal infrastructure projects that require construction permits within the administrative region. All construction units, construction enterprises (including professional subcontracting and labor operation enterprises, etc.), project management personnel of supervision units and construction workers who enter the construction site shall be included in the real-name management category of construction workers.
At present, the real-name management system has basically covered the whole country, strengthened the supervision and raised the threshold. In the future, there will be any "dirty tricks", the site will appear "extra personnel", the Internet will be able to give out a "warning". This will standardize the labor order of the construction market, lead migrant workers to gradually transform into modern skilled workers, and improve the competitiveness and vitality of construction enterprises.
Inovate regulatory models
We will strengthen dynamic supervision of the construction market
"We have made full use of modern information technologies, including information technology, big data and cloud computing, to make bidding and bidding supervision of construction projects more scientific, precise and efficient." According to the relevant person in charge of Guangzhou Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, the timely detection and verification of fraudulent and colluding bidding behaviors cannot be separated from the early warning and judgment of intelligent supervision. In the bidding process of housing construction projects in Guangzhou, the whole process starts the mode of "paperless, on the whole line and off the zero line", leaving traces throughout the whole process. The bid evaluation system has realized the functions of computer machine feature code abnormal warning, similarity analysis of bill of quantities and so on. It can automatically find the clues of surrounding bids and series of bids, give real-time warning and prevention and control of illegal operations, and improve the quality and efficiency of bidding supervision services.
In addition to technical investigation and punishment through big data analysis, it is also necessary to strengthen supervision to establish and improve the credit supervision mechanism connecting the whole supervision links before, during and after the event. At a state Council policy briefing held in November 2020, Yi Jun, vice minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, said that The State Council executive meeting has reviewed and approved the reform plan of construction enterprise qualification management system. Among them, will inform the commitment system reform to deepen constantly, all across the country, to expand free trade area, a prior approval to make regulation, through field verification results, by unfair means such as false promises enterprise qualification, penalties shall be imposed according to law, and revoke the qualification, qualification license, the enterprise accepts no longer inside 3 years the qualification, qualification licensing applications, To include them in the "blacklist", to create a benign development of the market environment, is conducive to the healthy development of enterprises.
Building a high standard market system for construction industry is the basic support for building a new development pattern of construction industry. Only by forming a fair competition market environment for market subjects and fully stimulating the vitality and creativity of market subjects, can we continuously enhance the development power and vitality of the construction industry and truly realize the high-quality development of the construction industry.
