- Abstract
- This document reports on research, undertaken under the guidance of Construction Industry Institute Research Team 130, to develop a new and innovative project delivery system that reduces the time and cost of capital project execution without reducing quality and lifecycle performance. The motivation to undertake the work was based on the belief that the expertise embedded in the design of strategic procurement items and/or systems as well as the expertise needed for successful project integration is frequently lost or underutilized when suppliers are silent partners in the EPC process.
