The Future: Design-Build More and more, knowledgeable developers and owners are turning to a modern construction solution for effi ciencies and quality known as “design-build.” It’s a process that starts with an updated contract struc- ture which favors the idea that de- sign coordination responsibilities are best managed, for the benefi t of all, by the construction team. This bet- ter allows for the construction budget and schedule to manage the com- plete building process, while experts from both the design and construc- tion worlds are better utilized at the correct time, and coordination issues are addressed when most effi cient for owners. While some contractors may feel like design-build is a forced marriage between the designer and contrac- tor, corporate risk directors believe today’s contractors have little choice but to embrace it. Design-build is here to stay, they say, because own- ers like it. While acknowledging that fact, experts advise owners to look for contractors with high-tech, integrated design experience. “A contractor needs to be a strong leader, and learning that role takes time,” said Kristin Hill, director of educational programs for the Lean Construction Institute. She notes that leading an integrated construction design process demands a culture of commitment and trust that isn’t devel- oped overnight. Additionally, other experts agree that builders should expect their in- house design capabilities to evolve to keep pace with the changing construction environment, and that design-build is an iterative process that will spin unless contractors have the right information that best comes from VDC knowledge and planning.

Rolling Out New Tech In his new position as deputy director of engineering and opera- tions, Davis has been overseeing implementation and testing of new technologies for the agency. Last year the agency pilot- ed a Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) and Multi- Modal Intelligent Traffic Signal System. It allows buses and other public vehicles to communicate with traffic signals in real time to keep traffic running as smoothly as pos- sible on major arterials. Working with the Utah Transit Authority, UDOT installed the system on a bus route along Redwood Road. The DSRC system was installed on signals at 24 intersections along 11 miles of the major north-south route. “The bus talks with the signals and the signals talk with the bus,” Davis said. “The system knows where the bus is — if it’s on schedule, how many people are on the bus — and it can make decisions to adjust signals to keep it on schedule. We’ve seen a remarkable increase in reliability on the route, starting in the low 80 per- cent of on-time arrival up to the low 90 percent.” The system has since been expanded to the two BRT vehicles operating in Provo and was tested on several snowplows this winter. “If we can give our snowplows signal pre- emption, we can get the roads cleared quicker, and that makes it safer for everyone,” Davis said. “We are going to evaluate what we saw from the tests we did at the end of this winter, and it may be something we expand to our fleet.” Another innovation that will soon
