- Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Includes a Live In-Person Event on 09/29/2023 at 8:00 AM (EDT)
Course runs 8:00am-5:00pm LOCAL TIME. This course is focused on Public-Private Partnerships (P3) for the Design-Builder. It is designed for both public and private sector design-build knowledgeable professionals with a slant towards private sector design-build practitioners. Included within the course design are modules that highlight the key differences between P3 and Design-Build procurement, project execution, and risk considerations, and how the private sector financing and long term operations and maintenance obligations change the technical considerations of a project.

Design-build project delivery has grown in popularity, accounting for nearly half of all design and construction in the United States. This growth can be attributed, in part, to the flexibility of design-build, including an Owner’s option to choose from among key variations: Two-Phase Best-Value Design-Build and Progressive Design-Build. This Webinar will provide an in-depth understanding of the commonalities and distinguishing characteristics of the two most common design-build procurement approaches.

It has been almost a decade since DBIA published its first Universally Applicable Best Design-Build Practices. It is critical that these Best Practices and corresponding Implementing Techniques continue to reflect the current state of the design-build industry. To achieve this, throughout 2022, DBIA invited a wide array of industry stakeholders to provide comments and recommendations. This will result in a refreshed Universally Applicable Design-Build Best Practices that will be introduced in the spring of 2023. This Webinar will provide insight into some of the more significant updates to the Best Practices. Learning Outcomes: In this session you will learn: • DBIA’s process for outreach and collecting recommended updates. • The diverse number of internal and external stakeholders that provided recommendations. • The detailed review and revision process that was followed to ensure that all comments received consideration. • The revisions to the 2014 Best Practices. • The new Best Practices incorporated into the update.

The use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and 3D drawings have become a de facto standard for the design of water and wastewater treatment facilities. These BIM models have proven to be very effective in communicating ideas early in the design process to optimize a facility’s performance and achieve consensus with an owner. However, there are few examples and limited standards for design-build projects, particularly for progressive design-build, on how contractors should best apply BIM during construction, and establish requirements for final BIM delivery to owners, that will provide efficiencies and cost savings for ongoing operations and maintenance. This webinar will discuss the practical applications for BIM through the design-build process, and considerations for contract documents, owner’s requirements, and final submittals that will support long term facility maintenance and asset management systems. The promise of BIM is for information developed during design to aid in building assembly modeling, or BAM, through the construction phase to enable efficient scheduling, contractor coordination, and cost control. Ultimately, if design-build is done right, the owner can leverage BIM and BAM for building operations optimization modeling, or BOOM, to support enterprise asset management that minimizes energy consumption, optimizes maintenance, and guides overall facility operations.

The University of Washington’s College of Built Environments is leading a Charles Pankow Foundation funded project to develop a tool that will assess and improve Owner decision-making with project delivery selection and management. The Owner organization has a significant impact on the success of a capital project. However, research on project delivery often focuses on the project team and how the delivery method supports key project performance indicators such as cost and schedule, as well as how it supports team interaction and team decision-making. What is not yet as well understood is the impact that Owner organization characteristics such as their decision-making culture have on project success, nor how different Owner organizational structures and cultures in terms of decision-making relates to successful use of different delivery methods. This research project will develop a digital tool for Owners to assess their decision-making profile and understand the challenges and alignments between this profile and project delivery for improved selection and management of project delivery methods Learning objectives: • Hear from the lead researcher the methodology used in developing this new tool. • Understand how an Owner's decision-making culture impacts project delivery decisions and outcomes. • Discuss how the Owner's culture aligns with various project delivery methods, including design-build. • Learn how industry can help guide Owners in the effective use of this tool.

CONTENT EXPIRES: December 31, 2023 This interactive session will revolve around reports from the DBIA Owner and Practitioner Forums held earlier in the conference. Not only is the session an exceptional opportunity to learn and exchange ideas, but it puts you in the driver’s seat to help determine the future of project delivery in the water/wastewater industry. Input from attendees will be used by DBIA to affect positive change in the industry.

CONTENT EXPIRES: December 31, 2023 The San Diego County Water Authority used a Public-Private Partnership (“PPP”) for the implementation of the Carlsbad Desalination Plant (“CDP”). PPP contracts are long-term agreements that must incorporate terms needed to deal with external changes that due to their nature are “uncontrollable events. The CDP project faced the need for a "Capital Modification" financing due to the planned closure of the Encina Power Station and the adoption of the California Ocean Plan requirements for additional environmentally friendly intake and discharge facilities. Presentation to discuss key considerations leading to the closing on a second PPP $45 million Capital Modification financing. Objectives: 1. Demonstrate contracting principles and the need to address inevitable uncontrollable circumstances during a PPP. 2. Define best practices for effective collaboration for managing secondary PPP financing 3. Applying consistent PPP risk allocation principles to a second Capital Modification PPP financing for a project 4. Describe the specific nature of, and considerations relevant to, a Capital Modification PPP financing.

CONTENT EXPIRES: December 31, 2023 For over 13 years, the town of Port Deposit was in desperate need of a new wastewater treatment plant. There were multiple studies, estimates and at one point a project was designed, went out for bid and came back woefully over budget. Another study and design were completed, and the estimate was nearly double the Owner's budget. Finally, in 2019, Cecil County decided they really needed to get the project moving and decided to issue a solicitation for a lump sum design-build project. After 13 years of no action, an entire plant will be completed in 18 months. Objectives: 1. How Design Build can expedite Design and Project delivery 2. How collaboration between the Owner, Engineer and Contractor positively affects a project 3. How bringing in key technology providers and subcontractors during design can help a project 4. How trust in Design Build is of utmost importance

CONTENT EXPIRES: December 31, 2023 Design-build is gaining traction and becoming an increasingly popular delivery method for water infrastructure projects. Whereas the design-build advantages historically focused on greenfield projects, this delivery method can also be extremely beneficial for retrofits of existing facilities. This presentation will explore the merits of design-build for water treatment plants and will highlight two Indiana American Water treatment plant projects, one retrofit and one greenfield, that demonstrate the advantages of the delivery method and highlight customized approaches to meet the owner and project needs. Objectives: 1. Demonstrate the advantages of design-build for greenfield projects and less conventional retrofit projects. 2. Compare the design-build benefits for greenfield and retrofit projects. 3. Explore the challenges with retrofit projects and how a design build team can work through the challenges collaboratively. 4. Assess complications for project closeout amidst COIVD.
