DESIGN-BUILD//BEST PRACTICES
understanding of pre-award practices that owners need to embrace to realize the benefits of
design-build. We have more work to do to identify and agree on pre-award best practices for
design-builders and the best practices that make
a difference after contract award. Clearly, there
are best practices that successful design-builders
consistently use, but we haven't captured them
yet. That's on our to-do list for future updates to
the document.
What area of this document do you believe is most
critical for industry adoption?

DH: There really isn't one area that's more
important than others. By definition, each one individually is fundamental to project success. It's also
the case that collectively they reflect the reality that
design-build is different from other project delivery methods, and owners and practitioners need to
approach design-build with that in mind.
