Many agencies and utilities have projects that are either immediately ready to procure a design-builder or are on the horizon (likely approved within their capital program with a designated time frame). Normally, owners embark upon a commonly used approach to launch immediately into the procurement process. However, WDBC’s research reinforces the need to examine more than just the procurement steps. There are other decisions that need to be made far in advance of this action. Officials and managers strongly recommend that the first decision a utility should make is to educate its staff about the differences in the delivery methods and the best practices for preparing for the procurement process. In making this decision, owners recognize that education is the key to developing a collaborative approach for a successful project.
WDBC is continually striving to support the industry by establishing best practices and sharing them through its many resources and education programs. If you are considering collaborative delivery for your next project, are you prepared to make the decisions needed for success?
