The Construction Contract Administration Knowledge Community (CCA) has been established to help our members better understand the issues, actions and resultant impact of the decisions required in this often neglected part of Project Delivery. It is our goal to provide clear answers to issues of concern to the Institute’s membership and share case studies and best practices. We further hope to provide guidance and direction in developing guidelines for new and evolving approaches to Project Delivery as well as guidance in the continuing education of our emerging young professionals.

Start out by reviewing the condensed, basic, IPD-ish concepts in the two-page “If We Keep On Doing What We’ve Always Done…” piece. In a forthcoming White Paper version, the author will be able to expand on those details a lot better. So it is with Integrated Project Delivery in general—it sounds simple, but its execution can be anything but, which is why full IPD tends to be limited to mega projects that can absorb the heavy setup costs and administrative burdens that full IPD requires. The suggested IPD-ish alternative, on the other hand, is applicable to typical projects of any size using more familiar delivery methods like CM-R and D-B, but again, it will take some mindset adjustments to dispel old adversarial habits and misconceptions.#Webinars #ProjectDeliveryKnowledgeCommunity #SpecialProjects #TechnologyinArchitecturalPractice #BestPractices #Reports/Essays #WhitePapers #Presentations #TechnicalDesignforBuildingPerformance #ConstructionContractAdministration #Articles #CorporateArchitectsandFacilityManagement
