Issues and Trends in Public Project Delivery

I will be speaking on "Issues and Trends in Public Project Delivery" on Friday, April 29, 2011 at the annual seminar of the Pacific Northwest Chapter of the Construction Management Association of America (CMAA) in Bellevue, Washington.

The seminar will attempt to answer the question: "Is GC/CM or Design-Build Appropriate for Your Project?"

The outline for my 45 minute talk that begins at 9:00 a.m. is as follows:
  • Public Works Delivery Models
  • Design-Bid-Build (why we have it, and why owners prefer alternative project delivery)
  • More Use of Alternative Project Delivery
  • 3 Key Trends in Contractor Selection (obtaining qualified contractors, applying bid preferences, requiring contractors by type)
  • More Bid Protests for Design-Bid-Build
  • GC/CM and Design-Build Issues
For more information, visit CMAA's registration website.
