DAD Sales joins IPDA - Integrated Project Delivery Alliance
IPDA is a not-for-profit action-oriented alliance of like-minded companies coming together to create solid foundations for collective success. Founded in February 2015, governed by a board of directors elected by its members, IPDA explores and supports emergent practices demonstrating enhanced industry outcomes and provides a forum for the exchange of knowledge. IPDA’s policies and resources are vetted by a diverse group of practitioners including the owner, architectural, engineering and contracting communities of practice.
“Through early collaboration and the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology, a more integrated, interactive, virtual approach to building design, construction and operation is emerging.”
Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) is a project delivery approach that integrates people, systems, business structures and practices into a process that collaboratively harnesses the talents and insights of all participants to optimize project results, increase value to the owner, reduce waste, and maximize efficiency through all phases of design, fabrication, and construction. IPD principles can be applied to a variety of contractual arrangements and IPD teams can include members well beyond the basic triad of owner, architect, and contractor. In all cases, integrated projects are uniquely distinguished by highly effective collaboration among the owner, the prime designer, and the prime constructor, commencing at early design and continuing through to project handover.
