There are numerous fundamental concepts that, if well understood, will help drive optimal outcomes when using of design-build. This track will touch on several of those concepts derived from both research and practical application. With sessions ranging from an overview of the common characteristics/distinguishing factors of best-value versus progressive design-build, to understanding the current state of infrastructure pricing and supply chain management – this track will provide the essentials needed for design-build success.
Track 2 – Optimizing Design-BuildDesign-build project delivery has a proven track record of outperforming traditional design-build-build and CM@Risk in cost and schedule performance. But did you know that research and case study has also shown that design-build can do so much more, including adding significant value for the Owner and end users, bringing innovative solutions, and helping Owner reach social responsibility goals? This track includes examples of just how far design-build can take your next project.
Track 3 – Collaboration “Done Right”While a single-point of responsibility contract is the hallmark of design-build, the mental shift to a fully collaborative mindset is equally important. Design-Build Done Right® best practices point to the importance of early engagement and collaboration of key stakeholders. Maximizing success requires true collaboration in actions, not just words. This track provides numerous examples of what true collaboration looks like and the results it can produce.
Track 4 – Show Me the Money (and the Contract)They say only two things are certain in life – death and taxes. In the AEC industry there are two other certainties – the need for funding and the need for effective contracts. In an economy where public Owners are forced to tighten belts and work smarter, this track looks at various financing mechanisms, strategies to ensure contract terms in the best interest of the entire team, and supply chain nuances that may impact current and future construction costs.

Taking Water/Wastewater Infrastructure to the Next Level with BIM/VDC
The technical complexity of water projects speaks directly to the value that Building Information Modeling (BIM) and technology brings to project teams. The success of design-build depends on the ability of the project team to effectively communicate and collaborate. BIM strengthens the links in the design-build chain, and new BIM technologies and ideas are being developed daily. This session will help place you on the leading edge of using BIM for optimal project success. Speaker(s): Will F.

A Design-Build Project Bridging the Park Planning and Wastewater Utility Worlds
HRSD, in partnership with the City of Virginia Beach Parks and Recreation, utilized the Design-Build project delivery approach to construct a 5.2 million gallon off-line storage facility (OLSF) within an existing 13-acre city park. Through a highly collaborative effort, the two owners and multiple design-builders re-imagined Woodstock Park into a multi-use facility that serves the region’s municipal wastewater needs and the city’s growing recreation needs. During design and throughout construction, the Design-Builder and the Owners continually discussed ways to blend the wastewater infrastructure into the park setting while keeping in mind the Owners' maintenance, operation and recreation requirements.

A P3 and Design-Build Solved Two Challenges for the City of Midland
The City of Midland partnered with private industry to improve their aging Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP) and generated a new revenue stream to support long-term operating needs and used the design-build method to achieve optimal results. Private industry needed an affordable supply of water to support their processing needs and the City of Midland needed some improvements completed to comply with new permit requirements. The local industry paid for the necessary improvements at the WPCP to meet the new permit requirements while also agreeing to pay for the use of the effluent to off-set the City’s long-term operating costs.

Design-Build for New versus Retrofitting Water Treatment Plants
Design-build is gaining traction and becoming an increasingly popular delivery method for water infrastructure projects. Whereas the design-build advantages historically focused on greenfield projects, this delivery method can also be extremely beneficial for retrofits of existing facilities. This presentation will explore the merits of design-build for water treatment plants and will highlight two Indiana American Water treatment plant projects, one retrofit and one greenfield, that demonstrate the advantages of the delivery method and highlight customized approaches to meet the owner and project needs.

Getting Started with Progressive Design Build: Procurement and Early Team Alignment
The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) had to procure and build a $500M water treatment facility in record time. LADWP knew Progressive Design Build was the answer, but didn’t have the experience. They faced a challenging environment where internal departments retain independent decision making and typically use a traditional “low bid” approach to construction. This presentation includes a discussion of how LADWP approached the procurement process, Simplar’s Expertise-driven Project Delivery method, and team-alignment tools. Attendees will appreciate the diverse perspectives offered by the presenters, including the owner’s procurement lead, a project delivery expert, and the design-builder.

How Design-Build Delivery Facilitated a Revolutionary Sewer Tunnel Rehabilitation
The Colsman Tunnel is a 7600-foot long hard-rock sewage conveyance tunnel operated by the Southgate Sanitation District. The tunnel was constructed in 1977 using hand-tunneling and road header methods and conveys 100 percent of the District’s flows with no backup or bypass. Previous assessments and suggested rehabilitation approaches had done little to reduce the District’s concerns for this single-point-of-failure facility. Southgate turned to a Design-Build delivery approach in hopes of creating a collaborative environment capable of producing a cost-effective solution to mitigate the greatest risk in their system.

Is Design-Build Right for Your Smaller Project?
Design-build has become the fastest-growing delivery method in the water/wastewater industry across the nation. Cost certainty and accelerated schedules have encouraged most states to embrace the design-build model. In today’s current market, large-scale design-build projects receive most of the headlines, but design-build can be a perfect fit for your small-scale projects. Whether it’s a smaller emergency project or an O&M repair, no project is too small for design-build. This case study examines how a project team in St. Joseph, Missouri, maximized efficiency through fixed-price design-build on a $4.7 million stormwater pump station project, saving 12 months of schedule and $400,000.

Capital Improvement Plan Maximized through Design-Build
Macon Water Authority's (MWA) two (2) water reclamation facilities required significant upgrades and improvements to allow them to continue meeting their NPDES permits. Initial studies envision upgrades far in excess of the available capital to complete the projects. Progressive design-build has allowed MWA to priorities and maximize their budget and even expand the original project scope within their available budget.

Multiple Birds with One (Design-Build) Stone: Improving TWO Treatment Trains at Once
Virginia American Water's Hopewell WTP, with a capacity of 36 mgd, required multiple process, safety, pumping and electrical upgrades. These needs were packaged into a $25 million design build project including UV disinfection with advanced oxidation, reliability and safety improvements, an industrial pump station and associated electrical building, as well as chemical modification including sodium hypochlorite, liquid ammonium sulfate, and lime slurry. This project is a successful testament to design build delivery with a satisfied owner, an efficient project schedule and a reasonable capital budget.

MWDBE Engagement in Design-Build Mega-Projects: Reconciling Client Goals and Expectations
Public sector agencies across the US are embracing alternative delivery to get jobs done quicker and contain costs. MWDBE participation in alternative delivery can present significant opportunities. MWDBE goals are increasing; the speed of the engagement is greater than many MWDBE’s have experienced. The Biden Administration has signaled it intends to make MWBDE inclusion on federally funded projects a high priority. How do you design a strategy that successfully integrates MWDBE’s into your project and deliver or exceed the expected goals? How do you accommodate your client’s expectations and keep the project on time, safely, and within the budget? Speaker(s): Michael Shapiro, PE, Owner, Michael S.

Over Lawyering the Contract: Appropriate Risk Shift in Progressive Design-Build
Progressive design-build represents a larger risk shift to the design-builder than other delivery methods. Owners should keep in mind that the goal is to build the project, not shift the maximum amount of risk. This presentation will discuss a framework for Owners to determine how much risk to shift to the design-builder, so design-builder does not feel the need to hide contingency in work items, resulting in a higher price. The presentation is based on my lessons learned as an attorney and project counsel. Risk shifting is not a one size fits all, even in the same project.

The Speed of Design-Build - A Case Study
For over 13 years, the town of Port Deposit was in desperate need of a new wastewater treatment plant. There were multiple studies, estimates and at one point a project was designed, went out for bid and came back woefully over budget. Another study and design was completed and the estimate was nearly double the Owner's budget. Finally in 2019, Cecil County decided they really needed to get the project moving and decided to issue a solicitation for a lump sum design-build project. After 13 years of no action, an entire plant will be completed in 18 months.

Shovel Ready: The Contractors Role in WIFIA Funding
Throughout the process of applying for Water Infrastructure Financing and Innovation Act (WIFIA) funding, onboarding and collaborating with your contractor-partner can play a key role in developing the LOI, applying for funding, and complying with the requirements of federally funded projects during construction. Project readiness, cost estimating, project scheduling, and risk evaluations reduce financing risk and improve WIFIA scoring – and a contractor-partner onboarded early in the design process may be the golden ticket. This presentation discusses the beneficial characteristics of collaborative delivery when applying for WIFIA funding.

Successful Collaborative Procurement and Relationship Building in the Time of COVID
In February 2020, AlexRenew released a Fixed-Price Design-Build RFP to three shortlisted design-build teams to develop detailed technical and price proposals and collaborate with AlexRenew through the remaining procurement process. Intended to occur in a confidential, face-to-face environment, this approach needed to adjust in light of the pandemic. Quick and timely transition to a virtual format was necessary to execute the collaborative process effectively, while continuing to ensure security and confidentiality, communicating technical requirements and innovations, and fostering productive relationships and engagement as one of the Design-Build Teams became AlexRenew’s partner to comply with the Commonwealth of Virginia’s legislative mandate.

T&Cs- The Secret to Design Build
In Design Build construction and design professionals must come together in a different contractual arrangement and the complex and critical projects can often create high pressure situations. The presenters have successfully negotiated teaming agreements and subcontracts for water design build projects in the mid-Atlantic region and will explain the perspectives that both construction and design companies bring to these negotiations, what some of the most challenging issues to resolve are and techniques that can be used such as determining when scoping and management can be used to overcome apparent differences between the legal stances that different firms may have

The “T” in Tualatin stands for "Team"
Mortenson reached substantial completion for a Progressive Design Build of the Tualatin Interceptor for Clean Water Services, 10,000 feet of 48” gravity sewer pipeline that was increased in size to 66” in order to accommodate growth in the community. The PDB procurement process resulted in a very strong team and the benefits of that team resulted in innovative project ideas and unique cost savings measures. Project ideas such as 550-foot curved microtunnel under the Tualatin River, phasing of the project for parallel permitting and construction, managing risk of dewatering, and subcontractor procurement, resulted in significant time and cost savings.

The Current State of Water Infrastructure Pricing and Supply Chain Management
With the pandemic, wildfires, and hurricanes, the state of the construction industry was far from predictable. As industries were put on “pause” while they tried to calculate what the future would hold, it was quickly apparent that the water had to keep flowing. Project safety costs increased with COVID-19 sanitation and PPE requirements. Some believed that there might be more labor availability because of lay-offs, while some thought costs would sky-rocket with plant shutdowns. This presentation will roll through a timeline of the events that occurred in 2020 and the effects they actually had construction quality, schedule and cost.

Utilization of 501(c)(3) Status for Infrastructure Financing
With today’s demand for project finance and tight municipal budgets, owners are turning to creative financing solutions that include 501(c)(3) not-for-profit, tax exempt options. This option can establish a Special Purpose Project Entity that can be governed jointly by public and private board members, professionally designed, built and operated by seasoned industry professionals, all while accessing the tax-exempt bond market to reduce cost of debt with off-balance sheet financing for governmental entities.

General Session: Diversity and Inclusion Training: What Works, What Doesn’t
Many people are diving into diversity training because there is a huge need facilitated by our ongoing workforce development issues and social pressures to implement some sort of strategy. That is the likely reason that most of these initiatives fail or come up short with tangible results. In fact, sometimes there is a backlash, and the initiative does more harm than good. This session explores best practices for diversity, inclusion, and equity training, not from anecdotal evidence, but from empirical research. We will cover the best practice results and practical ways to implement them.

One Size Does Not Fit All: Uncovering the Flexibility of Design-Build
Design-build project delivery has grown in popularity, accounting for nearly half of all design and construction in the United States. This growth can be attributed, in part, to the flexibility of design-build, including an Owner's option to choose from among key variations: Two-Phase Best-Value Design-Build and Progressive Design-Build. Review DBIA's new position statement on the flexibility of design-build and leave the session with an in-depth understanding of the commonalities and distinguishing characteristics of the two most common design-build procurement approaches-best value and progressive.
