Project Delivery System - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️How team members are
organized, establishes when parties engage, determines roles of parties, and
determines sequence of design, procurement, and construction (db, cmar, dbb)
Procurement Method - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️how team members are
selected (QBS, best value, low price, sole source)
contracting approach - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️how team members are paid
(fp, gmp, cost reimbursement, target price, unit price)
Design-Bid-Build (DBB) - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️linear, sequential process, A/E
selected on qualifications, GC selected on low price, design is fully completed
without input from GC, A/E acting in owner's interests, with a historically strong
bond, process is well-established and understood
construction manager at risk - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️similar org structure to
DBB, construction manager selected by QBS or best value, contractor provides
precon services, negotiated gmp contracting approach, open book estimating
process, potential to fast track project, construction cost determined before
design completed, potential issues over what is reasonably inferable from gmp
design documents

,STUDYSAGE
Design-Build - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️The owner contracts with one entity (a
person or firm) to provide both design and construction services, designer and
contractor have a direct contractual relationship, selected by QBS or best value,
wide spectrum of contracting approaches and organizational structures, single
point responsibility, owner does not manage designer, owner exposure to claims
is significantly reduced
engineer procure construct (epc) - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️similar to design
build, in industrial and power generation sectors, systems and performance
testing are central to scope, contractor will typically perform engineering with its
in-house staff, owner has need for single point responsibility, contracts include
plant and process performance guarantees, contract items include performance
and schedule liquidated damages and limitations of liability
Multiple Prime Contracting - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️owner contracts with
multiple trade contractors, attributes are typically similar to dbb, owner's ability
to schedule and coordinate the work
Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️multi-party
agreement - all parties equal, QBS procurement and target pricing contract
approach, private sector use (limited at this time), key: owner's ability to accept
risk
public-private partnership (p3) - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️Instead of government
building and maintaining major infrastructure (such as highway, water treatment
plant), build and maintenance is outsourced to a private company. Opposed by
public sector unions. this is not considered a delivery system but its underlying
approaches are delivery systems and typically use DB. multiple procurement and
contracting approaches
SUCCESS
, STUDYSAGE
shift left - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️intense efforts to establish scope early in the
process; drives early team formation to include key trade subcontractors; can
enable big decisions to be made early, affect project outcomes at lowest cost,
establish a need for co-location and collaboration, and compress time during
concurrent design and construction
traditional design build - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️typically two-phase best value
procurement with lump sum contract; owner defines project requirements and
scope of prescriptive work; use of performance-based technical requirements
with limited prescriptive specifications
progressive design build - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️design and price are
progressively developed after the design-builder is under contract; final project
cost and schedule commitment is not established as part of the selection process;
two phases: preliminary services and final design and construction services
criteria documents - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️describe the end result
bridging documents - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️prescribes how to achieve the
end result
design bid build paradigm - CORRECT ANSWERS.✔️✔️prior to bidding, owner
undertakes a process to design the project and all of its details to 100% complete
plans and specs. the owner is therefore responsible for success or failure of
details of the design, and warrants the sufficiency of design to the contractor. the
owner is therefore liable to the contractor for any gaps between plans and
specifications and owner's requirements for project performance
