Design-Build Constructability Accountability
|
| In our design-build contracts, the boundary between designer and builder responsibilities often blurs. This creates tension when constructability issues arise mid-design. We’re exploring governance models to clarify accountability early. What’s the most effective way to formalize constructability responsibilities in design-build delivery? It should protect both design integrity and field efficiency. |

Re: Design-Build Constructability Accountability

| Establishing accountability in design build delivery works best through structured governance frameworks, incorporating construction project management principles helps define shared but distinct responsibilities, a practical method is to embed constructability milestones within the design schedule supported by a responsibility matrix that assigns review ownership to specific disciplines, early agreement on decision authority and sign off procedures ensures that design quality is preserved while field requirements remain executable. |
