Implementing Integrated Project Delivery on Department of the Navy Construction Projects

摘要

This research will examine ways that NAVFAC can improve its delivery of construction projects by implementing IPD techniques. It will primarily focus on the ways IPD can affect a project's operating system, but will also include discussion of the project organization and commercial terms. This paper will use a literature review and case studies to demonstrate the techniques and benefits of IPD, provide recommendations on which techniques of IPD can and should be integrated into NAVFAC's existing project delivery system, and discuss specific benefits applicable to the Navy. It will also develop criteria for which NAVFAC projects should be potentially considered for the implementation of the recommended IPD techniques.
