Unlocking the Power of Design-Assist
Discover how to leverage design-assist to reduce risk, save time and costs, and improve project outcomes through collaborative processes and real-world case studies.
About the live course
This course is designed to provide an understanding of design-assist, a collaborative project delivery method that can significantly enhance project outcomes. By exploring the nuances of design-assist in comparison to traditional methods like design-bid-build and design-build, this course will equip architects with the knowledge and tools to effectively leverage design-assist in their projects.
The course will explore the team structures, processes, and the substantial benefits of design-assist, including time and costs, reduced project risks, enhanced constructability, and improved quality. Through a real-world case study, participants will learn how design-assist can be applied to achieve successful project outcomes, from the initial design phase to final construction.
- Differentiate between design-bid-build, design-build, and design-assist project delivery methods.
- Differentiate between design-bid-build, design-build, and design-assist project delivery methods.
- Identify strategies for implementing design-assist in projects, considering factors such as project scope, budget, and timeline.
- Analyze a real-world case study to understand the practical application of design-assist, focusing on its impact on the project’s success.
