In the recent years, owners and construction management companies have shown an increasingly more interest in adopting approaches that result in enhanced quality and less risks, conflicts, and wastes on their projects despite potentially higher initial cost. Implementing advanced technology trends and incorporating more integrated methods of delivering projects have proven to be highly value-adding and forward-thinking approaches. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effectiveness of and the synergy between three of such trending concepts in the construction industry, namely, integrated project delivery (IPD), lean principles, and building information modeling (BIM) in terms of cost and schedule performance measures. Data analysis was conducted on 72 vertical projects through interviews and study of the published articles, reports, and case studies. Qualitative analysis was performed through grounded theory while quantitative analysis was implemented using univariate and multivariate analysis of variance tests on schedule performance and cost performance. Results of the grounded theory analysis summarize six crucial characteristics required for an effective coordination between IPD, lean construction, and BIM. Statistical analysis on different combination of these three components revealed considerable effectiveness in terms of schedule performance while the effect on cost performance was not as much significant. This study contributes to the body of knowledge and practice in the field of construction by demonstrating the cost and schedule benefits realized through the use of IPD, lean construction, and BIM and identifying their collective conceptual advantages.

A integração de projetos é uma necessidade cada vez mais real no desenvolvimento de projetos de construção. O avanço da tecnologia, especialmente em relação ao BIM (Building Information Modeling), proporcionou maior facilidade para o compartilhamento de informações e integração de projetos. No entanto, ainda há poucos casos de uso dessa abordagem no Brasil, que em sua versão mais madura é denominada IPD (Integrated Project Delivery). Assim, foi realizado um estudo de dois casos que aplicaram princípios de projeto integrado, com diferentes níveis de maturidade, da mesma empresa, localizada em Fortaleza/CE, e buscou-se identificar os pontos que levaram à melhoria do processo. Como resultado, houve um grande ganho de eficiência de um caso para outro, principalmente devido a três fatores: (a) melhor metodologia para realização de reuniões; (b) utilização de contrato integrado; e (c) melhor integração e sincronização de informações através do software utilizado e da evolução dos serviços de rede compartilhados, que permitiram maior interação entre projetistas. Entretanto, foi possível identificar que os casos ainda não atingiram a total integração, principalmente devido a diversas barreiras, como a adoção de Open Book, compartilhamento de riscos e recompensas e participação de todas as equipes desde as fases iniciais dos projetos.

The Province of Quebec is currently in the process of adopting building information modeling (BIM) for major infrastructure projects. However, legal and contractual concerns such as the tendering process, adjudication criteria, intellectual property and risk–reward sharing mechanisms hinder the implementation of an efficient BIM process. This paper addresses the following question: How do norms, whether legislative, regulatory or contractual, functionally or dysfunctionally affect the effective implementation of BIM in Quebec’s public infrastructure framework? This paper suggests that the use of Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) should help mitigate legal barriers hindering BIM implementation, while preserving balance between fairness and encouraging collaboration. Quebec’s normative framework, which includes legislation, regulations, contracts and infra-regulatory rules, should be modified to standardize collaborative mechanisms, integrate two-stage negotiated processes such as rank-and-run or best and final offer and enable the assessment of tenderers’ objective qualities and more subjective qualities. Furthermore, a risk–reward sharing mechanism should be implemented through target costing, and upstream participation from a wide range of stakeholders should be encouraged.

This paper mainly discusses the system integration mode of industrialized residential collaborative design, and proposes a system integration model based on Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) industrialized residential collaborative design, which solves the collaborative design problem of industrialized residential life cycle. This system integration mode will industrialize residential coordination. The key elements of the design are integrated to form a complete system methodology. Through the analysis of variance, the average and standard deviation of the respondents’ scores were tested for significance. Then I used Fuzzy Set Theory to analyze the membership degree of key elements to verify my argument.

La industria de la construcción es una parte importante del aparato económico de un país, por tanto, la verificación de los nuevos sistemas de gestión que se implementan en las principales industrias constructoras del mundo y en donde se obtienen excelentes resultados, merece especial atención. En el presente artículo se hace una revisión bibliográfica de la filosofía Lean Construction (LC) o “construcción sin pérdidas”, un nuevo enfoque en la gestión de proyectos de construcción introducido por el profesor Lauri Koskela en el año 1992 basándose en el modelo empleado por la industria automovilística en los 80, la “producción Lean”. Koskela propone que la construcción es un sistema de producción que se funda en proyectos con gran incertidumbre en la planificación y una mala concepción de la producción, que es vista como un modelo de transformación solamente. Las bases teóricas de LC propuestas por Koskela pretenden ver la producción en la construcción como un proceso de transformación, de flujo y generador de valor, en consecuencia, el objetivo de Lean Construction es crear buenos sistemas de producción que permitan optimizar, reducir o eliminar los flujos para mejorar los tiempos de entrega. En este sentido, LC es un nuevo pensamiento en gestión de proyectos de construcción que desafía a la guía de gestión actual del Project Management Institute PMBOK, con un alto auge en los Estados Unidos, De ahí que LC no deba ser concebido como un modelo o sistema en el cual solo se siguen unos pasos, sino como un pensamiento dirigido a la creación de herramientas que generen valor a las actividades, fases y etapas de los proyectos de construcción. Entendiendo el valor como la eliminación de todo aquello que produzca perdidas en la ejecución de las mismas. En la fase de construcción por ejemplo, la reducción de los tiempos de ejecución en las actividades de obra, el control del desperdicio de los materiales y la prevención de accidentes laborales son objetivos que si se logran cumplir agregaran valor a tal fase. Basados en estos principios teóricos los investigadores Glenn Ballard y Greg Howell idearon una herramienta denominada Last Planner o como se conoce actualmente en Latinoamérica Sistema del Ultimo Planificador con el objetivo de mejorar el proceso de programación de obra proponiendo la renovación del concepto de planificación de obra tradicional, en donde las actividades que serán hechas se desarrollan sin saber realmente si las pueden hacer realidad en obra. Lo que hace el SUP es considerar el conjunto de actividades que realmente pueden hacerse de una manera más específica para controlar más de cerca los impedimentos que eviten la ejecución de estas en obra, de esta forma la probabilidad de que las actividades programadas se lleven a cabo es muy alta y como consecuencia la incertidumbre de no poderlas hacer disminuye y se evitan retrasos en la realización de los trabajos en obra. Como parte del desarrollo de la filosofía Lean Construction en el marco de crear herramientas Lean para la mejora de la gestión de los proyectos de construcción, se analiza como contrasta con el modelo tradicional de ejecución de proyectos diseño-licitación-construcción, en cuanto a cuál es la mejor forma de organización arquitecto, cliente y constructor en las fases de desarrollo del proyecto. La base teórica del modelo Integrated Project Delivery IPD propone unificarlos en la fase de diseño para obtener el máximo entendimiento del proyecto para que la fase de construcción se desarrolle sin choques entre el arquitecto y el constructor. Al aplicarle Lean construction al modelo IPD se convierte en el sistema de ejecución de proyectos Lean Project Delivery System (LPDS) el cual propone la metodología para desarrollar los proyectos de construcción bajo cinco fases y 12 etapas Lean en las cuales también se fomenta el desarrollo de herramientas que contribuyan con la generación de valor. La tecnología de modelado 3D Building Information Modeling BIM aunque no hace parte de LC es por ejemplo una herramienta de ayuda muy importante para el modelo LPDS, contribuye a comprender mejor los procesos constructivos de diseños complejos o simples para el ahorro de tiempo en su construcción. Bajo este paradigma de ayuda que brinda BIM se deja planteada una visión sobre su futuro desarrollo como parte de Lean Construction.

Control Right

The emergence of building information modeling technology has facilitated promotion and application of integrated project delivery mode, while reasonable allocation of control right is the key to dealing with opportunistic behavior during the knowledge sharing process of the building information modeling–integrated project delivery project. Replicator dynamics model from the perspective of knowledge sharing was established by means of evolutionary game, to analyze the evolutionarily stability strategy for allocation of control right between the owners and the professional technology companies. The research showed that, when the knowledge sharing benefit from innovation was more than the supervision cost for struggling for control right, two stably revolutionary strategies existed in the game system, namely contingent control and joint control; and the stably revolutionary status was under the influence of knowledge synergy coefficient, proportion of complementary knowledge, knowledge stock, degree of knowledge sharing, probability that the estimated operation status of the project was favorable, supervision cost, success probability of the project, etc. The research results provided a theoretical reference for the owners and the professional technology companies of building information modeling–integrated project delivery project in deciding whether to struggle for control right or not according to the observed information and the final benefit level.
