Heavy Industrial Collaborative Delivery > Our Expertise > Water Treatment > Drinking Water > Collaborative Delivery Kokosing’s experience with collaborative delivery ranges from Fixed Price Design-Build (FPDB), to Progressive Design-Build (PDB) to Construction Manager-at-Risk (CMAR), as well as Guaranteed Savings Contracting. Project experience with these delivery methods follow. Public DB laws vary by state and include variations such as FPDB, which establishes a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) with the design-build team’s proposal submittal; PDB and CMAR, which sets a Guaranteed Maximum Price at a design point such as 60%, and GSC, which focuses on lowering the cost of operation of a facility or system. Regardless of collaborative delivery method, our pricing is based on current market conditions and state-of-the-industry knowledge of changes on the horizon. We treat subcontractors as professionals, holding them to high standards for safety and quality while delivering on our commitments for schedule and payment. The biggest advantage of FPDB delivery is it is a single procurement phase that utilizes a qualifications-based selection process for the design-builder and design team, with a GMP submitted during proposal stage. Once underway, the project moves seamlessly from design through procurement and into construction. The PDB process, similar to FPDB, also establishes a design-builder-led team. With iterative pricing exercises at various stages of design completion, the cost certainty of a GMP is established later in the design process than FPDB. When we step into the role of construction manager on a CMAR delivery, we bring with us all the knowledge, experience, and resources of a major contractor who has delivered projects just like yours. In either the PDB or CMAR delivery scenario, where allowed, we look to self-perform the highest risk elements of a project, maintaining direct control over scope, schedule, and budget. The GSC delivery method is a qualifications and technical approach during a single proposal stage. The owner-engineer-contractor team collaboratively operates as an informed team to construct improvements that ultimately will result in either energy savings, reduction in operating costs or maintenance costs and/or future costs.
