See moreStructure successful IPD agreements with proven frameworks from 150 projects
Complex capital projects demand collaborative contracts that align stakeholders and reduce adversarial risk. Contracting for Integrated Project Delivery: Structuring Collaborative Projects for Global Success provides a step-by-step framework for developing, negotiating, and executing IPD agreements. Written by Howard W. Ashcraft, who has structured over 150 IPD projects, this guide offers practical legal strategies grounded in decades of real-world implementation.
The book details multilateral contracting processes, legal structures, and project alignment strategies that differentiate IPD from traditional delivery models. Readers gain customizable agreement structures, annotated examples, and tools for managing collaboration, shared risk, and incentive alignment. International guest chapters provide global perspectives on IPD adoption, addressing regional variations in implementation and regulatory frameworks.
Youβll also discover:
- Practical guidance on structuring multiparty contracts that support alignment, transparency, and joint decision-making throughout the project lifecycle
- Detailed explanations of how IPD differs from design-bid-build and other traditional delivery methods in managing risk and collaboration
- Customizable templates and annotated examples drawn from more than 150 successfully completed IPD projects across multiple sectors
- Strategies for negotiating shared incentives, managing liability, and ensuring owner, designer, and builder interests remain aligned throughout delivery
- International perspectives from global experts addressing regional IPD implementation challenges and regulatory considerations in different jurisdictions
Designed for owners, designers, builders, consultants, lenders, insurers, and legal advisors engaged in IPD projects, this book provides the detailed strategies and practical tools needed to structure collaborative contracts that drive successful project outcomes from negotiation through delivery.
