The flexibility of design-build project delivery allows an Owner to choose among various approaches for procurement and contracting. In progressive design-build (PDB) the Owner “progresses” towards a design and contract price with the team, making it an increasingly popular delivery option. Using real-world case studies of exceptional outcomes, taught by some of the nation’s most experienced PDB Owners and practitioners, this course will help participants:

The Design and Construction (VDC) Planning course is the first in a two-part series designed to establish a business case for VDC implementation on Design-Build projects and guide teams in developing a plan to meet the Owner’s goals and project-specific VDC objectives. This course is geared toward both VDC and non-VDC professionals. Attendees will explore how BIM-based technologies and processes create opportunities throughout the project lifecycle. The course will highlight the critical role of the VDC Project Leader on the Design-Build team and explain how to identify applicable BIM Use Cases. Participants will also learn how to document key components in a project’s VDC Execution Plan. (4 CEHs)​ The VDC Planning course is strongly recommended as a prerequisite for the VDC Execution course. The Planning course provides the foundational understanding of the VDC process needed to successfully implement the project goals established during planning and applied in the Execution course.

The VDC Planning course is strongly recommended as a prerequisite for the VDC Execution course. The Planning course provides the foundational understanding of the VDC process needed to successfully implement the project goals established during planning and applied in the Execution course. Building on the foundation set in the Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) Planning course, VDC Execution for Design-Build takes a deeper look into how Design-Build teams successfully implement their VDC Execution Plan in practice. Leveraging the collaborative nature of Design-Build, this session explores how concepts like Level of Development (LOD) can clarify deliverable responsibilities and define the information Owners need post-construction. Participants will also review real-world VDC performance metrics and examine emerging technological trends shaping the future of collaborative delivery. While this course is geared toward VDC Professionals and those managing VDC implementation on their projects, non-VDC Professionals are also encouraged to attend. (4 CEH)

For Owners writing RFQs and RFPs, and the industry practitioners responding, it’s vital that the design-build process begins with a procurement plan that optimizes collaboration, teamwork and open communication. Don’t start off your design-build project on the wrong foot. (8 CEHs)
