Progressive Design-Build (PDB) is an alternative project delivery method that has been gaining popularity in the construction industry. PDB is a variation of the Design-Build method where the owner hires a design-builder based primarily on qualifications, not price, and then collaboratively develops the project design and budget.
Benefits:
- Improved collaboration and communication
- Increased flexibility and innovation
- Better alignment of project goals among all parties
- Progressive Design-Build aims to combine the benefits of design-build (single point of responsibility, integrated team) with increased owner involvement and flexibility in the design and pricing process.
