DBIA Test Questions and Answers 2023 with complete solutionProject Delivery System - How team members are organized, establishes when parties engage, determines roles of parties, and determines sequence of design, procurement, and construction (db, cmar, dbb)
Procurement Method - how team members are selected (QBS, best value, low price, sole source)
contracting approach - how team members are paid (fp, gmp, cost reimbursement, target price, unit price)
Design-Bid-Build (DBB) - linear, sequential process, A/E selected on qualifications, GC selected on low price, design is fully completed without input from GC, A/E acting in owner's interests, with a historically strong bond, process is well-established and understood
construction manager at risk - similar org structure to DBB, construction manager selected by QBS or best value, contractor provides precon services, negotiated gmp contracting approach, open book estimating process, potential to fast track project, construction cost determined before design completed, potential issues over what is reasonably inferable from gmp design documents
Design-Build - The owner contracts with one entity (a person or firm) to provide both design and construction services, designer and contractor have a direct contractual relationship, selected by QBS or best value, wide spectrum of contracting approaches and organizational structures, single point responsibility, owner does not manage designer, owner exposure to claims is significantly reduced
engineer procure construct (epc) - similar to design build, in industrial and power generation sectors, systems and performance testing are central to scope, contractor will typically perform engineering with its in-house staff, owner has need for single point responsibility, contracts include plant and process performance guarantees, contract items include performance and schedule liquidated damages and limitations of liability
Multiple Prime Contracting - owner contracts with multiple trade contractors, attributes are typically similar to dbb, owner's ability to schedule and coordinate the work
Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) - multi-party agreement - all parties equal, QBS procurement and target pricing contract approach, private sector use (limited at this time), key: owner's ability to accept risk public-private partnership (p3) - Instead of government building and maintaining major infrastructure (such as highway, water treatment plant), build and maintenance is outsourced to a private company. Opposed by public sector unions. this is not considered a delivery system but its underlying approaches are delivery systems and typically use DB. multiple procurement and contracting approaches
shift left - intense efforts to establish scope early in the process; drives early team formation to include key trade subcontractors; can enable big decisions to be made early, affect project outcomes at lowest cost, establish a need for co-location and collaboration, and compress time during concurrent design and construction
traditional design build - typically two-phase best value procurement with lump sum contract; owner defines project requirements and scope of prescriptive work; use of performance-based technical requirements with limited prescriptive specifications
progressive design build - design and price are progressively developed after the design-builder is under contract; final project cost and schedule commitment is not established as part of the selection process; two phases: preliminary services and final design and construction services
criteria documents - describe the end result
bridging documents - prescribes how to achieve the end result
design bid build paradigm - prior to bidding, owner undertakes a process to design the project and all of its details to 100% complete plans and specs. the owner is therefore responsible for success or failure of details of the design, and warrants the sufficiency of
design to the contractor. the owner is therefore liable to the contractor for any gaps between plans and specifications and owner's requirements for project performance
design details responsibility - the owner should define its performance requirements and award the contract on the basis of preliminary design; this makes the design-builder
responsible for completing the design in accordance with the owner's performance requirements. that also causes the design-builder to warrant the sufficiency of the design to meet the owner's criteria and the sufficiency of the design to subcontractors/suppliers that have no design responsibility
uniformat - subdivides project by functional elements, focuses on systems and assemblies, useful for preliminary information and early design phases, aligns with BIM models and conceptual estimating
masterformat - subdivides work by results/trades, focuses on building materials, products, and activities, useful for detailed information during final design and construction phases, and aligns with detailed estimating
