Howard Ashcraft Speaking at WPL Construction Education Webinar

Traditional construction methods, such as design-build, often put the owner and other parties at odds, which means that they often end up on opposite sides in court when things go wrong. However, integrated project delivery (IPD) is designed for collaboration and shared risk/reward from the beginning of a construction project. The traditional methods of passing along blame and responsibility are virtually eliminated from the equation and replaced with working environments that encourage parties seeking project success. Bringing together the owner, architect and contractor on a level playing field is conducive to quality delivery. The fundamentals of this process ensure maximum efficiency and successful project delivery from all parties involved.
