It details the contracting approaches used to maximize cash flow and assign risk commensurate to capabilities, procurement practices to maximize quality and avoid delays, collaborative approaches between the Region, the contractor and the engineer to leverage the strengths of each party, and design integration through 3D design and value engineering.
