    Leentje Volker In the past few years the image of tender procedures in Deciding which Dutch public clients selected an architect has been dominated by distressing newspaper headlines. Architects fear that the current tender culture will harm the quality of about Design Quality our built environment due to a potential lack of diversity, Value judgements and decision making in the creativity and innovation in architectural design. Due to potential risks clients often allow legal requirements to selection of architects by public clients under overrule their actual wishes. This PhD research addresses the origin of the problems as currently experienced by public European tendering regulations commissioning clients in architect selection and proposes Deciding about Design Quality pragmatic implications for future practice. It is therefore of interest for commissioning clients, management consultants, policy makers and legal advisors but also for designers and researchers in the field of architecture and decision making. Based on four empirical cases the author shows that during architect selection the rational legal requirements clash with the psychological process of decision making. Decision makers only start to make sense of the proposed designs once they are confronted with the alternatives. It is therefore about Design Quality almost impossible for clients to design a selection procedure and announce the criteria and weighting factors up front, as required by procurement law. The scientific underpinning of the findings is found in four theoretical perspectives on value judgements in design and the latest decision theories in which sensemaking, emotion, intuition, and expertise play prominent roles. The thesis proposes fifteen factors for a successful design of a tender procedure to select an architect.

  • Gideon Maasland
    Gideon Maasland Director, and Architect, Gideon Maasland (NL), joined MVRDV in 2016. With extensive experience acquired at several high profile Dutch offices, Maasland leads MVRDV’s Studio 8, which is responsible for large-scale, complex buildings in the Netherlands and abroad. He leads the development, and construction of Valley, a 75,000 m2 mixed-use building in Amsterdam, as well as the construction of a 61.800 m2 residential tower project in the Hague, and the transformation of Jaarbeurs in Utrecht, a trade fair of 170.000m2. Besides this, Maasland is working on several projects in Poland, and the UK. Other exceptional projects include the Glass Farm in Schijndel, The Crystal Houses in Amsterdam, and the Balancing Barn in Suffolk, England. “I love to work on buildings that make a difference to the people using them or living close to them. At first glance, you might think these projects will never happen, because they are too difficult, too expensive, or not technically possible, but with the help of a large team of experts, and dedication to relationship management, anything is possible. There are no good projects without good clients.” - Maasland Profession Education 2001-2004 Technical University, Delft, Netherlands Director Architecture and Urbanism Architect 1998-2001 Technical School, Amsterdam, Netherlands Years of experience Bachelor in architecture 16 Professional 2016 / - MVRDV, Rotterdam, NL.

Roland Deiser Considers Corporate University Structures IEDP Ideas for Leaders Bridging the Academic Corporate Gap www.iedp.com Viewpoint Business Models Galore The Colorful and Diverse World of Corporate Universities “It would appear from 15 years of data that a corporate university is whatever a corporation decides it is.” By Roland Deiser his fall, a delegation of 15 executives from major Russian corporations will visit Germany in the course of a learning expedition to find out about great examples of Corporate Universities (CUs). The delegation is led by Russia’s largest bank, Sberbank, who is especially ambitious here; they recently opened a flagship university near Moscow that serves not only internal Tpurposes but provides a visibly branded educational institution for Russian society at large. A similar project has been launched by Qatar Petroleum in an effort to strengthen the conglomerates’ capabilities and, at the same time, position the Gulf country as a hub for the knowledge economy. It seems that despite economic turmoil, the concept of CUs is quite alive; it may even face a renaissance. Over the last year or so, activity has also picked up in Western Europe, where CUs have been around now for about 15 years. Major players such as BASF, Bayer, SAP, or ABB, who so far have held back and refrained from joining the club, are currently huddling over blueprints for innovative learning architectures that they hope will help address their complex capability challenges.
