Reason for Switching Contractors • 15 % Better Product • 15 % Better Cost • 70 % People Nicer to Deal With
When Will a Project Lose MoneyJim Lammie • When project has a new project manager • You are dealing with a new client • Dealing with new technology • Secondary reasonSplit office/divided responsibility
Art Stout Intel’s Construction Head It is relatively easy to train a manager, but extremely difficult to educate a leader ! Consequently we have ten times as many managers than leaders ! What we really need is leadership….
Research Thrust Areas $3.5M • Alternate Project Delivery Systems • Performance Based Procurement • Cleanroom Construction • Construction Simulations • Trenchless Engineering • Residential Construction
APDM Research Dr. Jim Ernzen • Alternate Project Delivery Methods Task Force • Wrote new legislation allowing public agencies to use: • Design/Build, • Construction Manager @ Risk, and • Job Order Contracting • Currently $4B in public APDM work underway
Information Based Delivery Dr. Dean Kashiwagi • $4M of research over 8 years • Using information technology to minimize decision making and risk • Tested 400 times on over $250M of construction • Implemented by FAA, US Coast Guard, and being entertained by Harvard University • Minimizing 80% of owner’s overhead • Increase performance to 96% On-Time, On-Budget, with no contractor change orders
PBSRG History • PBSRG was founded in 1994 by Dean Kashiwagi. • $4.2M of research funding in last 9 years. • Over 350 cycles of scientific method testing to optimize delivery of construction. • Results have shown a dramatic increase in performance and quality (over 96%).
PBSRG Research • Performance Information Procurement System • Information Measurement Theory • Best-value procurement systems • Supply chain management • Artificial intelligent decision-making models • Risk management • Improving efficiency
