| Abstract | ||
| Those involved in airport construction and similar large construction projects are aware that there are challenges to providing safe, quality projects that meet tight budgets with short time frames. Airport owners and operators, concessionaires and lessees, agency and governmental officials, design professionals and builders all have discussed, experienced, read, or overheard the challenges. Similarly, many have become aware of reports of the growing popularity of having multiple project delivery options available to them. This paper presents a list of the widely used project delivery systems (PDS) and offers guidance in selecting the most advantageous PDS. In addition, we look at the basic options of how project oversight (Project Management Options) can be provided. Project oversight addresses how the owner can manage the work; project delivery addresses the options for designing and constructing the project. This paper analyzes what conditions influence project success and discusses the types of project conditions for which each PDS is most applicable and offers the greatest potential to deliver a successful project. | ||
