The spirit of cooperation enabled the team to design, build and commission the extra housing unit and correctional industries space to the original design within the tight time frame. In the end, the team completed a larger project than was initially bid within the original budget and schedule. “Everything about the Coyote Ridge project worked,” Olson says. “Can we replicate that? Every project is different, and it only takes one person to throw a monkey wrench into a system to wreck it. Can we replicate it? Maybe not, but certainly that’s the goal.” Not every project will run as smoothly as Coyote Ridge. But no project would have to run as smoothly to dramatically improve the way most construction projects are executed. Give it a try. Reinvent partnering on your next project.
