Public and private sector owners have a wide variety of options when it comes to delivering their capital projects. Selecting the right delivery method for a particular project requires the owner to not only have a deep understanding of the attributes of available delivery methods but also the procurement and contracting approaches that best work with those methods.
The Engineer’s Project Delivery Method Primer: Uniform Definitions and Case Studies brings clarity to the definitions and sometimes complex and conflicting terminology associated with project delivery methods. It does this by providing a comprehensive explanation of each delivery method, including
• | The “Big Three” delivery methods —Design-Bid-Build, Construction Manager-at-Risk, and Design-Build; | ||||
• | Variations on the “Big Three,” such as multiple prime contracting, EPC, and EPCm; |
Public-Private Partnerships;
• | Integrated Project Delivery; and | ||||
• | Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contracts. |
In addition to providing a detailed discussion of the attributes of and case studies for each delivery method, readers will learn about
• | Procurement and contracting approaches commonly used for the method, | ||||
• | Roles, responsibilities, and contractual relationships among the participants involved in the method, and | ||||
• | Legal principles affecting the method. |
This book gives owners and practitioners what they need to understand capital project delivery, procurement, and contracting.
