This paper presents the use of tools and approaches of system dynamics in the analysis of the efficiency of BIM tools implementation in relation to the management and planning of investments in the construction sector. The dynamic model based on the approach of system dynamics allows to simulate the impact rate (range) of BIM implementation in strategic investment decision-making in the construction sector. Based on the analysis, the key parameters critically affecting the large construction investment projects are determined. The proposed model is implemented as a submodel in the dynamic model designed for potential refinements in the strategic planning of the extent of investments into projects of civil infrastructure of the Czech Republic. The model allows to test different strategies in the virtual world before their implementation. The prediction of future developments based on the proposed model allows to streamline planning and decision-making processes.

Purpose This paper aims to describe cooperation between public and private market players from different legal and religious orders. The author argues that such public–private partnerships (PPPs) enable the development of a possible convergence between selected areas of mainstream public finance and the Islamic moral economy (IME). Design/methodology/approach This paper explores the theory of both mainstream finance and the IME, and using deductive reasoning from axioms, develops the assumptions of a theoretical approach to heterodox PPP. The proposed method affects the ability to find common platforms between mainstream public finance and the IME, through the example of public–private investment projects. Findings This endeavour is subject to trade-offs between profit maximisation and social justice values on the basis of long-term PPP contracts. The author shows the assumptions under which this compromise would be beneficial to public entities, multicultural societies and conventional and Islamic investors. It is proposed to distribute profit to the owners up to a predetermined value, above which the PPPs would finance public services for persons otherwise excluded from them. Originality/value The success of this approach must depend on a compromise between profit maximisation as the sole investment objective and investment guided by social justice values. Private investors can achieve a capped level of profit on a long-term contract basis, and public partners can obtain long-term contracts for providing public goods. Both would undertake a project with a strong emphasis on corporate social responsibility, with particularly large opportunities in developing Islamic countries.

Abstract-While constructing the geothermal cogeneration plant the success of the projects depends upon its financial and market feasibility. A new optimization method is used to estimate financing requirements of investment projects will be presented, as well as a new method to predict the optimal year to sell the investment. A case study is used to illustrate the use of a model to assess the financial feasibility of a geothermal cogeneration plant. The conclusion is that Net Present value , Internal rate of Return and Modified Internal rate of Return should be used to assess financial feasibility of investment projects. In addition to calculating the financial feasibility criteria, assessment models should allow the user to perform sensitivity analysis, scenario analysis, and simulation to analyze risk associated with the investment project. Risk probability matrix is used to obtain the risk priority , which then continued with financial analysis for the feasibility study and also sensitivity analysis. The study shows that the parameter investment value will be increased when treatment is done on risk.Keywords:Financial and market feasibility, Geo thermal cogeneration plant, Environmental Aspects, Sensitivity analysis.

The article discusses the conditions and opportunities for the implementation of various strategies for the acquisition of residential real estate. The choice of indicators used to assess the economic efficiency of investment depending on the investment or consumer interests of the subjects of the residential real estate market is analyzed. The possibility of using the term «private investor» in relation to the residential real estate market in the most common transactions is determined. The issue of applicability of the economic effectiveness indicators for assessment of efficiency of private investment in residential real estate is studied. The article analyzes various options for solving the housing problem from the perspective of a private investor using indicators of the economic effectiveness of investment projects. The conditions and limits of applicability of this approach for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the acquisition of residential real estate are determined.
