Subject: Perceived vs. Realized Benefits of Integrated Practice
This message has been cross posted to the following Discussion Forums: Technology in Architectural Practice and Center for Integrated Practice .
-------------------------------------------
Whichever contract type we employ (by choice or not), architects have demonstrated that Integrated Practice has enhanced the value of design and project delivery. AIA members who have undertaken Integrated Project Delivery are reporting higher confidence in achieving high-performance design, leaner schedule, cost predictability, and operation efficiency (check out the latest AIA survey sent to 10,000 members):
"Survey Shows Growing Awareness of IPD, But Barriers to Wide Adoption Remain
Most AIA members say that collaborative delivery methods make projects more efficient and predictable."

How should architects articulate and interpret such value propositions to owners?
