Leveraging Alternative Delivery for Linear Infrastructure 
 

Paul Longo, Dewberry

Approved for 1.0 credit hour for Water, Wastewater, and PE

 

Webinar Description:

Alternative delivery has taken many forms over the years and has expanded from traditional design build (DB) to include construction manager at risk (CMAR), progressive design build (PDB), and private public partnerships (PPP) amongst others.  There are many advantages to utilizing alternative delivery for projects; including fast tracking schedules, risk mitigation, innovation, and cost savings.  </p> <p>For utilities that manage collection systems, one of the main goals of their program is to provide a sufficient level of service to their customers at an acceptable level of risk.  Leveraging asset management systems, performing condition assessment and prioritizing spending through Capital Improvement Plans (CIP) are all good tools to identify assets that need renewal to extend their remaining useful life.  Owners need to balance complex permitting requirements, public outreach, capital expenditure and program management when delivering a program that reduces overall system risk.  Over the past 20 years, as buried collection system infrastructure continues to age across the Country, new technologies and innovative approaches are emerging to repair, rehabilitate or replace buried assets.  These technologies have different application requirements, limitations and advantages, depending on the project.  Leveraging alternative delivery can provide Owners with more cost-effective solutions with an expedited schedule.  However, not all projects are right for alternative delivery.  Understanding procurement requirements, delivery challenges, and contract limitations of these delivery methods is key in deciding when and where alternative delivery makes sense.This presentation will provide a high-level overview of alternative delivery methods, Owner/Engineer/Builder relationships and highlight three (3) completed example projects where alternative delivery methods have provided the best solution for Owners.  Projects include Georgetown University CSO Rehabilitation   96 and 108 Geopolymer Rehabilitation using CMAR Delivery 7 Sliplining Colsman Tunnel Rehabilitation   42 HDPE Sliplining of over 7,000&rsquo; hard rock tunnel using PDB Delivery.The presentation will include lessons learned and how the procurement and delivery method provided added value for each project.
