  • Abstract:
    Integration and collaboration within construction projects are seen as responses to the construction industry’s inherent efficiency and performance issues. New project delivery methods, such as integrated project delivery (IPD), have emerged as potential solutions to enable this integration and collaboration to overcome the industry's inherent challenges. The number of studies published on IPD has increased rapidly in recent years, covering many aspects of this innovative approach. However, as IPD is still emerging, many questions remain around its components, their instantiation, and the areas of research and development needed to support their progression within academia and industry. This study aims to establish a comprehensive view of the current landscape of IPD research and identify the domains that are underrepresented through the development of an R&D framework. The framework aims to help both researchers and practitioners navigate the different components of IPD and guide research efforts to further their development. The R&D framework is built upon established frameworks and a systematic literature review of 175 papers from 2017 to 2022 and was validated using data from three case studies. The research findings identified a framework with six primary themes and 19 sub-topics that relate to both′ well-explored and under-researched aspects of IPD.
