Elevating Leaders - Optimizing Outcomes

The rapid growth of design-build presents the need for leaders who can deftly navigate the unique landscape of collaborative project delivery. Projections show that nearly half of all construction spending will be design-build by 2026, so building a strong foundation of leadership is vital to keeping up with that trend. 

DBIA’s Collaborative Delivery Leadership Academy is designed to equip AEC professionals with the leadership skills and mindset needed to successfully make the mental shift from a segregated services approach to an integrated one. The Academy elevates the capacity and capability of individual team members to create optimized solutions that translate into project outcomes that consistently exceed expectations.

This in-person session is in Denver on August 9th. You must complete the in-person Leadership prerequisite to sign up for this course. Please visit the home page for more information.

Selecting an Owner Advisor
The role of an Owner Advisor has developed over the years as the increasing complexities of contractual obligations have led Owners to seek more advice to be more informed and knowledgeable about the procurement, design, and construction processes. Learn from an Owner about the broad scope of services from pre-award to post-award responsibilities that an Owner Advisor can play, as well as the important role of the Owner in ensuring that the advisor is a true extension of the design-build team.
Speaker
  • Mike Meredith (DBIA Fellow and National Board Member), Vice President, Director of Design-Build Program Services - Vanir (previously with the California Department of General Services)
Being an Owner of Choice in Today’s Competitive Market
With record funding, growing populations, emerging regulatory considerations, and other market drivers, the volume of infrastructure projects is rapidly increasing.  When this historical market growth is coupled with supply chain issues, labor shortages, and cost uncertainties, Owners are faced with the reality that they are now competing to attract partners to deliver their project. Panelists will offer their perspectives and provide insight on strategies and tactics to attract participants for their project opportunities.
