GOOD CONSTRUCTION PROJECT TEAMWORK IS NO LONGER GOOD ENOUGHWith today's increasing trend toward best value selection and alternative project delivery methods, public owners now have the freedom to choose their contractor or design-build team. A track record of just "good" teamwork may not get you on the short list. The need, the processes, and the tools (BIM, etc.) for a higher order of collaboration exist.
Tighter owner budgets, increased project complexity, and the need for improved risk management urgently demand a higher order of flexibility, transparency, and innovation among owners, designers, contractors, and construction managers. It is paramount to meet these needs and take full advantage of today's and tomorrow's processes and tools. What's missing is "World Class" teamwork at the project level.
Raising the Bar on Construction Project Teamwork provides the compelling value, a revolutionary concept, and a field-proven process for achieving an extraordinary level of "World Class" teamwork with velocity and consistency-with or without a formal partnering process.
" World class teamwork, as definedin this book, should be a goal of all our construction industry partners. It takes a culture and professionalism that will accept nothing short of an extraordinarily successful project. This success leads to enduring relationships." - Wayne Lindholm - Hensel Phelps Construction
"Jim worked with me on the largest building construction program in the country, and I have seen him employ the concepts he describes in this book to create World Class
teams-Jim has done an excellent job of articulating the concepts and providing guidelines for the industry." - Jim Cowell, PECaptain, CEC, U.S. Navy, retired
