Integrated Project Delivery (IPD)
• Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) is a project delivery
approach that integrates people, systems, business
structures and practices into a process that
collaboratively harnesses the talents and insights of
all participants to optimize project results, increase
value to the owner, reduce waste, and maximize
efficiency through all phases of design, fabrication,
and construction. (http://ipd-ca.net/overview/)

Building Information Modeling
• Building Information Modeling
(BIM) which has been defined
as “a digital representation or
visualization of physical and
functional characteristics of a
facility. In addition BIM serves
as a shared knowledge
resource for information about
a facility forming a reliable
basis for decisions during its
life-cycle from inception
onward”

▪ Informed decision making
▪ Reduced risk/improved build

of information
Overall Transformation
• Fragmented, assembled on “just-as-
needed” or “minimum-necessary”
basis, strongly hierarchical,
controlled
• Linear, distinct, segregated;
knowledge gathered “just-as-
needed”; information hoarded; silos
of knowledge and expertise
• Individually managed, transferred to
the greatest extent possible
• Individually pursued; minimum effort
for maximum return; (usually) first-
cost based
• Paper-based, 2 dimensional; analog
• Encourage unilateral effort; allocate
and transfer risk; no sharing
• An integrated team entity composed key
project stakeholders, assembled early in
the process, open, collaborative
• Concurrent and multi-level; early
contributions of knowledge and expertise;
information openly shared; stakeholder
trust and respect
• Collectively managed, appropriately shared
• Team success tied to project success;
value-based
• Digitally based, virtual; Building

• Encourage, foster, promote and support

A. The traditional single-stage involves the completion of each phase prior to the start of the next phase, often involving a
different organization performing each phase in a non-integrative process
B. The design-build process involves an overlap of development phases leading to a shortened overall schedule and requires
integration between designers and builders
C. A collaborative process involves participation by all key participants as early in the process as possible and ongoing
collaboration.
