Intent of the Committees Work Address increasing use of progressive design-build, which is more flexible for owners and typically reduces risk for design professionals and contractors pursuing the work. Provide flexibility for owners within the RFQ/RFP process, and make it easier for design-builders to respond to project opportunities. Increase opportunities with smaller Design-Build projects, which make it easier for small businesses to participate. Gain broad support of stakeholders. Ensure statute revisions build on and are consistent with previously developed Best Practices Guidelines. Streamline the procurement process for all stakeholders. Improve outcomes.
How the Committee Worked Ensure Progressive Design-Build is thoroughly addressed Focus on improving current statute rather than providing companion statute Provide more flexible, less prescriptive language that will benefit all stakeholders Eliminate redundancy, increase clarity ( Grammar Matters ) Fix what is not working and requires statutory change while using the Best Practices Guidelines as a reference Open and frank dialogue from all viewpoints
