  • Abstract:
    The proponents of Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) claim it can potentially achieve superior results over other procurement models. The American Institute of Architects defines IPD as: “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” (AIA, 2007). This aspirational description suggests why IPD is said to be the next evolutionary step in collaborative contracting. In order to begin to assess these claims IPD is examined in relation to its theoretical sources and genealogy in lean construction, concurrent engineering and the collaborative structures of Alliancing. While fundamental similarities exist between Alliance and IPD procurement structures, improvements have been added to IPD contracts and processes which appear to respond to new technologies. These improvements include: Building Information Modelling (BIM) protocols, improved project management techniques to improve workflow and cost management as well as early stage collocation in a ‘Big Room’ environment. These innovations point to the need to understand the pre-conditions for IPD adoption: the take-up of BIM technology by contractors and sub-contractors and an understanding of IPD collaborative negotiations in practice. Whilst IPD is clearly a credible procurement model it requires further empirical and applied research in order to establish its widespread adoption.
