Two-Step Process Step 1 Predesign Step 2 Design/Build Design (advisor) oversight

11
Procurement Process Issues Competitive bids Competitive proposals Areas of Concern –Quality –Openness Scoping Report for NB US-23 Over Middle Branch Macon River Structure No. BO2-1 of 58033 Developing Bridge Repairs Alternatives (Bridge Scoping) University Region - Seven Bridges Michigan Department of Transportation JN-M84216 October 13, 2000
12
American Bar Association Code for Design/Build Allows both Competitive proposals allows negotiations based on ethical business practices, no auction Owners need technical advice through entire process
13
Design Requirements Needed per ABA Code Features, functions, characteristics, qualities and properties that are required by the State Anticipated schedule, including start, duration, and completion Estimated budgets (as applicable to the specific procurement) for design, construction, operation and maintenance The design requirements may, but need not, include drawings and other documents illustrating the scale and relationship of the features, functions, and characteristics of the project.
14
Key Issues to be Considered Quality –Qualifications based selection Initial price Life-cycle price Schedule Permitting Financing
15
Advantages Single source of quality responsibility Possibly less change orders Shorter in-service time
16
Disadvantages Less control of details –Design –Construction –Materials and equipment –Design life Early commitment to total project Owner changes can have bigger impact Faster expenditure of funds Variance of qualifications across a team
17
Threat of Substitute Products or Services Threat of New Entrants Competitive Forces Bargaining Power of Suppliers Bargaining Power of Buyers Advanced Technology International Firms/Management Firms (D/B/F/O, D/B/O, D/B/O/M) DOTs/Public Owners/ Utilities/Private Owners Design-Builders, CM, Program Managers Rivalry Among Existing Competitors

Identifies method that meets Owners Outcome/Best Value Goals. STEP #2: Owner engages technical advisor to identify appropriate delivery method based on project characteristics. STEP #1: Available Delivery Approaches
