Construction projects tend to be bigger, more expensive, more complex, and often more challenging than other procurements. In this timely new book, author John Adler outlines the design and construction procurement process step by step. He captures the procurement approaches for design and construction that have dominated the industry during the past two decades, including Design-Build, Construction Manager\/General Contractor, and Public-Private Partnerships. John explores these and other approaches from practical and public procurement best practice perspectives, examining the inherent advantages and disadvantages of each approach and capturing recommended policies and procedures. Topics covered include:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• The most common project risks and how responsibility for those risks is allocated through design and construction contracts\u003cbr\u003e• Steps in the project planning process, including capital planning, project management, budgeting processes, and financing tools for construction projects\u003cbr\u003e• Construction project delivery methods, including the traditional Design-Bid-Build, Design-Build, Construction Manager at Risk, Job Order Contracting, and Public-Private Partnerships\u003cbr\u003e• Qualifications-based selection for design and architectural services and the administration of design contracts\u003cbr\u003e• How to select a construction contractor\u003cbr\u003e• Contract administration for construction projects\u003cbr\u003e• An overview of social, environmental, and economic issues in design and construction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eContracting for Design and Construction Services in the Public Sector\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis an easy and entertaining read for public procurement practitioners, ranging from entry-level practitioners to seasoned professionals and managers.
