    CONTENT EXPIRES: December 31, 2026 The CA DGS Resources Building Renovation (RBR) in Downtown Sacramento utilized Progressive Design-Build (PDB) delivery to transform the high-rise building for its future 2,500 tenants. PDB has allowed the Owner and Design-Build Entity (DBE) to work collaboratively from Day 1 on design while making informed decisions along the way. Major renovations inherently have added risks, which make an ideal case to use PDB for the risk to be fairly allocated between the DBE and Owner. Progressive Design-Build allows integrated project teams to truly optimize design, decision-making and risk allocation. This discussion will dive deep into the best practices of PDB using recent examples at RBR. It will highlight how this method can contribute to the successful delivery of a complex project on time and on budget while adhering to the criteria documents and addressing modifications resulting from unknown existing conditions. Attendees will learn how the integrated team functions and how the design process can proceed in parallel with preconstruction, demolition/abatement, and construction to maximize schedule and preserve the base budget for the ownership. Our Learning Objectives are encompassed as follows: 1. Value-based decision-making with Owner involvement. 2. Faster Project launch. 3. Optimal design cadence. 4. Improved risk mitigation and allocation.
