Question 143
Kathy is the construction manager for a multi-story skyscraper building in San Diego, California. Kathy has always used analogous estimating techniques to secure bids with contractors and subcontractors quickly in past projects. However, this has often led to scope creep and unforeseen costs, which have resulted in significant cost overruns. As a means of driving prices down, Kathy elects to focus on the concept of Integrated project delivery to deliver a high-performance building for this project. What is the most crucial step in the integration process for integrated project delivery?
- A Measurable Value (MV)
- B Collaboration co-location
- C Production management
- D Visualization simulation
Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Measurable value is the process of aligning owner goals and team outcomes. The only way to deliver a high-performance building is to understand and define the values that drive it. Collaboration co-location states that integrated projects require collaboration at every step. Visualization Simulation requires fostering faster, more efficient decisions. Production management ensures all team members are doing the right things at the right time.Discussion
