One of the actions taken at the December 13-14, 2007 meeting of
the AIA Board of Directors was the approval of a revision to AIA
Position Statement 26: Project Delivery Methods. The revised
position statement, suggested by the AIA Design-Build Knowledge
Community, now reads as follows:
26. Project Delivery. The AIA believes that every
project delivery process must address the quality,
cost-effectiveness, and sustainability of our built environment.
This can best be affected through industry-wide adoption of an
integrated approach to project delivery methodologies characterized
by early involvement of owners, designers, constructors,
fabricators and end user/operators in an environment of effective
collaboration and open information sharing. The AIA also believes
that an architect is well qualified to serve as a leader on
integrated project delivery teams. The AIA further believes that
evolving project delivery processes require integration of
education and practice in design and construction, both within and
across disciplines.
