Varieties of Design-Build Procurement

Abstract

An employer who wishes to use Design-Build for his project must prepare an enquiry in some form or other. This is a simple statement of fact, but deciding upon the content of a Design-Build enquiry is far from simple. The employer (with his advisors, as necessary) must not only make a number of decisions which relate to the form, terms and conditions of the contract, but he must also decide upon the extent of the technical contents of the enquiry.
