DESCRIPTION:
Recognizing a need for change to address demands for more efficiency, project complexities and sustainable results, the AEC industry is slowly transitioning to more integrated project delivery methods, fostering more collaboration. Concurrently, some firms are leveraging the benefits of BIM’s emerging technology to not only work smarter, but to ultimately facilitate this change in the way projects are delivered.
The slow progression of this transition is often linked to those practitioners that are resisting the required cultural shift in the way designers practice. Risk acceptance, traditionally the architect’s biggest nightmare, may be the key reason for this ambivalence, yet at the same time, prevents more potential reward. Presenters of this course will review the principles of IPD and collaboration, and discuss why they may intimidate design professionals.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
After participating in this webinar attendees will:
- Understand the need to transition from traditional linear Design Bid Build processes to a more collaborative IPD workflow
- Recognize the difference between cooperation and collaboration
- Define creative approaches to structure contract modifications to achieve a more collaborative approach
- Describe how design excellence may be achieved in collaborative projects that are focused on budget and schedule
- Leverage the work the AIA/MBA of Western PA Joint Committee's Collaboration Task Force is producing to encourage owners to prescribe more integrated delivery systems.
