input during design, competitive atmosphere creates adversarial
relationships, lowest bid award creates marginal subcontractors,
and unethical bidding practices.


Multi-Prime Contracting - answer Owner has separate contracts
with MULTIPLE contractors AND a prime architect. More control of
project by the owner (acts as GC), ease in phasing the project and
potential cost savings. Multiple contracts create many phases to
manage, gradual determination of final cost, tension over project
leadership, additional owner resources needed and safety can
suffer.

construction manager/general contractor and architect/engineer.

no contract between construction firm and designer and additional
fees required for construction firm during design.

design/builder firm. Construction input during design, useful on
large and complex projects, allows for innovation and completes
projects faster (fast-track projects). Lack of input by the owner in
design and construction, reduced owner control, total project cost
