As a project delivery method, Design-Build (DB) has provided owner, architect, and contractor groups with a process of early design and rapid construction for the past three decades. Although there are many benefits to using standard DB, dissatisfaction has arisen due to limitations to innovate, limited owner involvement during design, and often lengthy procurement. Progressive Design-Build (PDB) has become an appealing alternative providing benefits not seen with standard DB. This paper investigates how PDB impacts a project and how it compares against standard DB; it also presents a proposed framework for evaluating the owner's responsibility and assessment of a project, which we named the "Four Pillars of Project Success". The four pillars are defined with respect to an owner's responsibility and assessment of a project, including project predictability, project risk, project schedule, and project cost. We conducted a literature review, examined several public project case studies, analyzed PDB project information collected by the Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA), and held stakeholder interviews with owners, contractors, and architects who have used both PDB and standard DB. This paper offers insight into PDB's structure and outcomes so an owner group can make an informed decision when considering PDB as their next construction contracting method.

Aging buildings over 15 years reaches about 74% of 177 thousand buildings in Domestic public buildings. Due to the aging building, the energy loss is a serious problem. In order to reduce the energy usage through improving the energy efficiency on the existing buildings, the government & the local autonomous entity conduct the energy efficiency projects through the remodeling, repairing & equipment replacement on the existing buildings. The green remodeling is applied to the existing public buildings in recently revised the act on the creation and support of green building. However, the standard is not obvious that the work scope of green remodeling, financing and project delivery method. This paper propose is to suggest project delivery system for vitalizing the green remodeling. Green remodeling is defined on basis of the occurring work under project life cycle based on the existing building process and the financing method for owners and companies and the project delivery system according to work scope of green remodeling are proposed in this paper

The selection of an appropriate contract method is vital for the successful operation of the project. However, there has been a lack of studies on objective decision making support models for use in the planning stage of a project contract. The present study had the goal of analyzing the factors that influence contract method selection, as an initial study for developing a project contract method selection model. The existing related studies were analyzed, and the factors considered in the literature were selected. Then, based on the findings, the opinions of an expert group on the important factors for contract method selection were collected through a survey. The collected opinions were analyzed using factor analysis, a statistical analysis method. The results will be utilized in the future as preliminary data for developing a decision making model for selecting a contract method.

With the electricity industry structure reformation of the government in April, 2001, Korea Power Electric Corporation was divided in to Korea water power nuclear power and 5 thermal power plant. After, various delivery method is introduced and applied for active profit creation according to the competition between each development companies for the public company privatization. However, the current situation does not satisfy the project participant by selecting the delivery method without reflecting the business goal and project characteristics of power plant construction business. The objective of this study is to research the influencing factors that should be considered to select the delivery method in thermal power construction business and develop a standard of selection of appropriate delivery method through questionnaire and interviews to establish a model to select the delivery method that fits the business goal of the subject of delivery. In the future, if the delivery method selection model suggested in this study is applied, it is expected to select the appropriate delivery method of power plant construction business by effectively reflecting the business goal, characteristics and demand of the delivery subject, and characteristics of the construction business apart from the existing customary practices that decided the delivery method dependent on the subjective and experience based judgement.

Recently, the Design-Build (DB) delivery method in public sector makes some argument by reason of the initial cost which is more higher than those of Design-Bid-Build (DBB). According to the results of pervious researches related to the performance evaluation of delivery method, DB can lead the reduction of project cycle time and also is superior to the traditional DBB in terms of construction quality. The performance on each delivery method could be generally evaluated by a project cost and a project cycle time as one of quantitative analyses, and also by construction quality as one of qualitative analyses. In most researches, the evaluation of performance level based on delivery methods has been evaluated by the degree of their satisfaction through the interview with owners. Therefore, this paper analyzed the design documents of construction projects delivered by traditional DBB and DB in bridge construction projects in order to measure design quality, constructability, maintainability, and etc. As an above-mentioned analyses, finally, this research shown that how much the difference of performance level is by each delivery method.

Integrated project delivery (IPD) is suggested as an alternative to traditional delivery methods such as design-build (DB), design-bid-build (DBB), and construction management at risk (CMR). Many foreign research studies have approached IPD not only in the contractual aspect but also the work implementation method aspect. However, most research projects in Korea have focused on the contractual aspect of IPD for asserting that the characteristics are the critical matter. The Korean institutional and legal system does not permit the multi-party agreement; therefore, it is difficult to adopt IPD in Korea's construction industry. The researchers do not wait the system to be changed, but we do identify the possibility of adopting IPD in Korea in the perspective of work implementation method, except the contractual characteristics. Thus, the goal of this research is to identify one project that does not include IPD agreement but utilizes other IPD characteristics whose contractual results have similar performance to those that utilize all characteristics of IPD including agreement. This research is expected to enhance performance of the construction project in a Korean construction environment by embracing IPD characteristics as overcoming limits and bounds of the traditional delivery method.

Alternative project delivery methods including design-build and CM at Risk have evolved as a means of meeting owner's diverse needs and implementing project efficiently with limited budget and time in more competitive construction environment. It is time to consider adopting alternative project delivery methods, especially CM at Risk, for domestic construction industry to enhance competitiveness and to provide various options for owners so that they can select more appropriate project delivery methods for the facility being planned. This research report derives suggestions from investigating how CM at Risk has been evolved in the US construction market. Besides the analysis of CM at Risk market in the US construction industry, the characteristics of companies whose market share are in Top 100, the type of facility usually built by this method were investigated. Based on the analysis of CM at Risk in the US, the prepositions in adopting CM at Risk to domestic construction industry and the possibility of adopting this method have been identified.

Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) is a procurement method that has been proved to improve construction project performance. However, in China implementation of IPD practices in construction projects is unknown though some researchers have studied the problems and constraints in adoption IPD. The purpose of this study was to explore IPD adoption in Chinese construction industry. Critical components of IPD implementation were reviewed, and questionnaires were distributed to collect industry views. The results revealed that IPD uptake is still low. In particular, the liability waiver and shared risks and rewards have been rarely used. In addition, co-location, value engineering method and the new compensation approach have also been hardly adopted. Some practices related to early involvement of key parties were adopted. Surprisingly, the findings indicate that the client has been continuously involved in the projects. The findings may imply that the legal issues and problems of contractual frameworks are still constraining IPD implementation in Chinese construction industry.

Indian Construction industry is large, volatile, and requires tremendous capital outlays. Typically, the work offers low rates of return in relation to the amount of risk involved. A unique element of risk in the industry is the manner in which disputes and claims are woven through the fibre of the construction process. Delay is generally acknowledged as the most common, costly, complex and risky problem encountered in construction projects. Because of the overriding importance of time for both the Owner and the Contractor, it is the source of frequent disputes and claims leading to lawsuits. The growing rate of delays is adversely affecting the timely delivery of construction projects. Presently construction industries are facing a lot of problems, considering that a paper assess construction stakeholder's perception to the causes of delays and its effects on project delivery. And also one case study is considered in this paper to elicit responses from construction stakeholders. The primary aim of this paper is to identify the perceptions of the different parties regarding causes of delays, the allocation of responsibilities and the types of delays, and method of minimizing the construction delays.

Among project delivery methods, Design-Build method is becoming an increasingly preferable alternative to traditional contracting method. The Design-Build delivery method was first introduced in Korea, 1975. But it still has been producing many problems. The previous researches had been suggested several ways to improve the Design-Build project delivery but it seemed to have had no effect whatsoever. This research proposes the success model for Design-Build delivery method through the 4 steps. First, find the proper modeling method. Second, establish the As-Is model for analyzing the circumstances of Design-Build method. Third, to begin with analyzing the As-Is Design-Build model and previous researches, establish the problem model. Finally, find success factors and circumstances through the overseas Design-Build system, and then establish the success Design-Build model.
