“In the long history of humankind, those who learned to collaborate and
improvise most effectively have prevailed.”
– Charles Darwin
Today’s Topics
Importance and currently available collaborative project delivery methods
Description of key characteristics of a collaborative project delivery method
Roles and responsibilities of Owners, AE’s, Contractors
Importance of standardized information and supporting technology
Economic and Environmental Drivers Altered World Economic
Landscape– AECOO Productivity
has DECLINED for over 40 years
– Budgetary Pressures
Non-renewable Resources & Climate Change– Built environment is a
major contributor
Construction - Fundamental Change
Owners pay the bills:
Thus, it’s the Owner’s responsibility to drive/require LEAN management processes, education/awareness, and the adoption of supporting technologies to improve construction productivity.
Industry understanding and support of LEAN processes (IPD, JOC, PPP…) and life-cycle management.
Factors Affecting Adoption of Efficient Construction Methods
• Executive leadership & support• Human resources• Process & Information needs/capabilities• Risk perception• Financial resources
Organizational Issues
Standards Market Factors
• Economics• Climate Change• Mandates• Stakeholder demands
• BIM Ontology• Cloud Computing• Integrated Project Delivery• Education, Support, & Training
Requirements for Change – Check List
A Robust Ontology (Terms, Definitions, and Associations)
Life-cycle cost focus vs. prevalent first-cost mentality
Migration from linear strategy-design-construction- demolish to multi-faceted, cyclical portfolio management-project delivery-property management model
“Trust but measure” – Owners can’t manage what they don’t measure - Transparency
Lifecycle ManagementToday’s Focus
Traditional vs. Collaborative Construction Project Delivery Methods
Design-Bid-Build (DBB) Design-Build (DB) CM-at-Risk (CMAR)
UNPRODUCTIVEANTAGONISTIC / LEGAL DISPUTES
EFFICIENTMUTUALLY BENEFICIAL RELATIONSHIPS
Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) Job Order Contracting (JOC) Public Private Partnerships (PPP)
INFORMATION SILOS TRANSPARENCY
Traditional vs. Collaborative Construction Project Delivery Methods
What is JOC / JOB Order Contracting
3-5 Year Contract Construction Delivery Method A “Better Way” for the Numerous Renovation,
Repair, Sustainability Construction Projects Costs Developed Using a Unit Price Book
(UPB) and a Co-efficient Performance-based Transparency Collaborative Win/Win for Owners/Contractors/AEs
JOC Requirements
Right Teams Unit Price Book (RSMeans) Owner Estimates (IGEs) Performance Bases Transparency Supporting Technology Training
JOC Benefits
On-Time / On-Budget Projects Fewer Change Orders Enhanced Communication Shorter Procurement and Project
Timelines Transparency Longer Term Relationships Higher Satisfaction for ALL
PROVEN – 25-year track within the DOD
EFFICIENT - Reduces engineering, design, & procurement time
LONG-TERM - Typically 3-5 year contracts
PARTNERING – Requires teamwork – owners, contractors, AE’s
PERFORMANCE-based - Contractors selected value / qualifications
CONVENIENT – Construction services from concept to close-out
JOC Basics
Shorter Procurement, Fewer Change Orders = Savings
Shorter Procurement, Fewer Change Orders = Savings
Track & Manage each project from inception to completion.
Manage a single project, entire contract, or multiple contracts.
All project milestones, concept thru warranty period.
Display status of each project Maintain a complete cost
history Record all estimates
associated with a project. Review value of all projects
awarded on a specific contract, or to a specific contractor.
Report pre-negotiation strategies and post-negotiation summaries.

Estimates from Each Design Stage
Final Detailed Cost Estimate
Initial Contractor Proposals
Technically Evaluated Proposals
Final Revised Contractor Proposals
Modifications & Changes Orders
JOC Process
Supporting Technology
Integration of Proven Construction Delivery Methods / Project Management
Standardized Cost Data Architectures / Taxonomies (i.e. RSMeansTM – 400,000 line items)
Comprehensive Document Management
Electronic Visualization / QTO (i.e. eTakeoffTM)
Supporting Technology
• Collaborative Software Application• Cloud Computing? • Contract Management• Project Management• Document Management• Visualization / QTO• Owner / Contractor/AE Modules• Integration
Manage Multiple Contracts
Compare, Evaluate, Negotiate, Award
Visual Estimating / QTO / Pattern Search
Future
“WIN-WIN”Integration of best-in-class, new life-cycle focused processes,
technologies and services.
Proprietary, vendor dependent development
Non-proprietary, open standards/development

Evolution of Cost Estimating/Project Management
Cloud Computing
Benefits – Ceasel Cloud Computing Architecture
Collaboration - users work concurrently on projects in real-time…virtually anyone, anywhere, anytime.
Data Integrity – Information is NEVER deleted. Changes can be “rolled back” at any time by authorized administrators.
Data Protection – You determine how, when, and where to publish data: your private area, as read only to specified members within a private cloud, all members in a private cloud, or publish information to all members in public cloud.
Benefits of Ceasel’s Cloud Computing Architecture
Visualization – Project participants see data earlier in the project life-cycle, driving fewer change orders, faster project timelines, and virtual elimination of legal disputes.
Agility – Rapid deployment, monitoring, and the ability to quickly update processes and policies.
Virtually no resource required of internal “IT” for deployment or applications specific changes, computing power, storage space, etc.
Benefits of Ceasel’s Cloud Computing Architecture
Mobility – Resources can accessed from multiple locations.
Centralization of Information – While information can be gather from distributed locations, consolidation and global oversight is supported to assure mission success.
Business Continuity –Internet access is sole
requirement. Data centers provide multiple redundancies.
