The integrated project delivery method (IPD)
Abstract
Integrated project delivery (IPD) is an approach in construction project management that seeks to engage collaboration and efficiency between relevant project stakeholders, namely project owner, architect, and contractor in all phases of the project. The IPD is especially relevant in the initial and planning phases of the project lifecycle since this is when team members and the appropriate procurement strategy is selected. [9] The current form of IPD was created to relief the symptoms that can arise from the lack of transparency, trust, and collaboration throughout the project lifecycle. [1] The IPD is not suitable for all types of projects, but depends heavily on the size, complexity, and the potential risk adversity of the project in scope.
While the IPD can be a valuable method to ensure efficiency and transparency across business functions within a project team, preparing for the execution and implementation of the IPD can be a tedious task. The success of the IPD relies immensely on setting specific goals, assigning, and defining the correct team member roles and setting up a governance model that safeguards the knowledge sharing. [1]
