This immersive workshop examines how Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) contracts can unlock—or unintentionally limit—innovation in the built environment. Participants will engage in a deep dive into the dynamics of collaboration, stakeholder roles, and the contractual frameworks that shape project outcomes.
The topics of discussion include:
- Assessing the critical differences between applying IPD to new builds versus renovations, and navigating collaboration with seasoned versus first-time team members
- Exploring procurement strategies, contract structures, and pre-planning efforts required before team selection
- Aligning internal owner personnel with collaborative delivery principles and identifying practical adaptations for smoother transitions
- Navigating relationships with external authorities and approval bodies under an IPD framework
- Uncovering the impact of team-based delivery models on design innovation, construction efficiency, and long-term infrastructure value
