A three-day intensive program including the three DBIA core courses required for certification plus access to the code of conduct and exam prep webinars. We advise attendees to take the code of conduct webinar before the workshop.

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. (8 CEUs)

One of the hallmarks of design-build project delivery is early knowledge of costs. This course introduces the fundamentals of conceptual estimating and how to go about assessing risk and calculating costs before design is complete. (6 CEUs)

Effective integration of the distinctly different design and construction processes is a critical management responsibility for a successful design-build project. This course, along with DBIA’s Design Management Guide, explores the fundamental aspect associated with successful management of design within an integrated delivery framework. (8 CEUs)

Design-Build delivery has been evolving. Many owners have moved from design-bid-build to design-build Best Value Selection (BVS) and are now moving to progressive design-build (PDB). Through this evolution, there can be knowledge gaps between the design-build BVS and PDB processes with a variety of successes, failures, and a significant learning curve. This session gives unique insight from two highly distinguished public sector owners who candidly share their stories. At UCSD, the PDB process was initiated about three years ago. While at SFO, the PDB practice has been implemented for over ten years with many successful outcomes.

This presentation will review several examples of progressive design-build water and wastewater projects where the early integration of the design-builder, Owner, key subcontractors and the Owner’s advisor resulted in significant benefits to project performance, specifically during execution and startup. DBIA best practices and methods developed across several successful projects will be reviewed. The examples and concepts provided here will support the idea that integrated delivery relies heavily on strong relationships, communication and collaboration by all.

The challenges faced by the design and construction industry as a result of COVID-19 have been enormous. What does the future hold for design-build project delivery, and the design-builders who are leading the way? This session will focus on, review of jobsite safety pre-COVID, during COVID, and how it will evolve post-COVID.

P3 Predevelopment Agreements (“PDA”) or Progressive P3s (terms used synonymously) are gaining traction due to growing risk concerns in fixed-price contacts. The PDA approach facilitates earlier design-builder involvement in project development. This session focuses on the design-build component of these procurements including the pros and cons, the procurement process, considerations during the PDA period (post award), and how the collaboration of this approach can potentially solve complicated project issues in a manner unlike other approaches.

What makes for a design-build dream team? Early integration of key trades. Our team enhanced project delivery at the new George Mason High School by engaging mechanical, electrical, low voltage and millwork/casework trade partners early and often. Identifying these trades during the RFP process and engaging them throughout design was critical to achieving the owner’s program requirements while meeting the budget. Are you ready to leverage each company’s expertise and build your own dream team?

This presentation will address what owners and their teams need to understand about reality capture when requesting proposals from reality capture providers. It will go through the complete scope of reality capture topics, including premobilization, mobilization, field work, registration processing, delivery of point cloud data, and "Scan-to-BIM Modeling". It will share lessons learned from planning and scoping projects as large as a four million (4+ M) square foot laser scan project to as small as a one-hour mechanical room scan, and everything in between.

The workplace of today is rapidly evolving, and it is not enough for firms to have a grasp of the latest BIM/VDC technologies. We must embrace the transition to cloud platforms that allow work to be done from anywhere – remote sites, homes and traditional offices. This requires close collaboration between IT infrastructure teams and BIM/VDC teams, something that has traditionally been difficult for most organizations. This trend has been illuminated by the recent COVID-19 pandemic and we will show what a completely virtual and remote workforce looks like and how this helped Southland transition to the new virtual workplace.

The use of fair and clear contracts is fundamental to any delivery process. Because there are some important differences between design-build contracts and those for other delivery systems, it is particularly important for the individuals who administer the design-build procurement and execution to understand the contract’s language and its practical application.

FMI and DBIA's Water/Wastewater Committee joined forces to evaluate the current level of effective engagement of the “supply chain” in design-build project delivery, and to provide recommendations to improve engagement going forward. Hear first-hand the results of this important research and how the information can be used to further enhance design-build project delivery.

This session will focus on the design-build risk within P3 contracts. Discussion will be centered on design-build risk transfer between the project Owners and the private sector proposers and how optimum risk transfer ensures sufficient market participation and provides the true best value for public Owners.
