NATIONAL DESIGN-BUILD STUDENT COMPETITION// AWARD California State-Sacramento Wins DBIA National Design-Build Student Competition 20 winter//2014 DBIA National Design-Build Student Competition Finalists with Executive Director Lisa Washington LIKE ACTORS at the Oscars waiting for the envelope to be opened, their faces were stoic, but filled with anticipation. Standing on the stage were the three final student teams, selected from more than 40 teams around the country who had entered DBIA's 2013 National Design-Build Student Competition. Representing Auburn University, California State-Sacramento and Colorado State University, these students came to DBIA's Design-Build National Conference & Expo in Las Vegas to present their plans for building a residence hall using design-build project delivery in front of a prestigious jury. After much deliberation, the jury selected the California State-Sacramento team as 2013's first-place winner in front of an audience of more than 1,000 industry professionals. The leadership ability, mastery of information and communication skills displayed during the presentation portion of the competition set the California State-Sacramento team apart to take the title. The National Design-Build Student Competition mirrors best practices in design-build project delivery by breaking the competition into a two-phase process. In phase one, a general "problem" statement, or request for qualifications (RFQ), was issued. Teams of students from DBIA's regional chapters across the country provided broad, all-encompassing solutions to meet the qualifications needed to accomplish the owner's goals. The scope of the project was a new college residence hall. The RFQ asked for teams with a history of completing similar projects as well as "professional commitment to excellence, teamwork, innovation and open communication." The three- to five-floor residence hall would need to include dorms as well as apartments, study rooms, common areas for student interaction, a dining the quarterly publication of the design-build institute of america
