Can contractors and specialists add value to a project by theirearly involvement in design, pricing, risk management andprogramming? How can this be structured and what role docontracts have to play? What is the impact on procurement andproject management? Commentators from Banwell to Egan have recommended earliercontractor appointments, and this has also been linked tosuccessful project partnering. How are the two related? Early Contractor Involvement in Building Procurementconsiders the case for a two stage procurement approach based on asystem of agreed project processes during the preconstructionphase. It examines the ways in which a contract can describeand support this model throughout its procurement, partnering andproject management, and is illustrated with case studies taken fromprojects and programmes across the construction and engineeringindustry. The roles of the various parties involved, the obstacles theyencounter and the benefits they can achieve are examined indetail. There is practical guidance on how to improve speed,economy, sustainability, change control, dispute avoidance, andclient satisfaction. This book bridges the gap betweencontract law, partnering and project management and will beessential reading for middle and senior management at constructioncontractors, consultants and clients in both the public and privatesectors.

Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) has been used within the New Zealand infrastructure industry since at least the early 2000s, but there has been little in the way of broad, nation-wide evaluation of how this relatively new type of project delivery method is performing. Anecdotally, ECI in New Zealand is often promised as a delivery method that can improve the quality of construction project outcomes for clients, reducing construction programme and costs by facilitating collaborative design and construction between the client, designer and constructor. The question remained however - was ECI delivering on this promise? The background research demonstrated that ECI showed potential to support greater levels of design innovation, increased construction quality and other attributes which were presumed to be increasingly critical on future design and construction projects. This research project sought to answer the question above by interviewing 17 senior engineering professionals (the Participants) within the infrastructure industry. Their collective knowledge of ECI projects was used to determine how the projects were being delivered, the key positive and negative project attributes, and to allow comparison with other research conclusions. The research results were then used to prepare a guideline document, with information on how to achieve better ECI project outcomes. There were a number of consistent benefits reported by the Participants - with shortened project programmes, improved management of project risks, and development of trusted relationships between parties affirmed by the majority of Participants. However, the Participants noted inconsistent improvements in regard to construction quality and levels of innovation, in contrast with other research on ECI. In part this may be due to lack of experience or skills within the New Zealand industry. However, more critically it appeared that many clients continued to prioritise the lowest cost construction for their projects even when using the negotiated-cost approach of an ECI project. Consequently the 'cost' of improved quality and innovation rested with the designers and constructors. It was therefore concluded that for the industry to obtain full value from the ECI delivery method, the industry must have a change of heart, and accept that ECI operates as a negotiated-cost project with precedence given to the construction quality and design innovations: cost savings are not guaranteed. Without this acceptance, the full value of ECI is unlikely to be realised.

Construction contractors are usually not invited in design stage before design is being finalized. Therefore, it reduces their ability to influence the project's specification. Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) is a form of project delivery which provides efficient use of resources; allows innovation in projects and provides for a value outcome. The aim of this paper is to review the circumstances when ECI will be implemented and to determine the strength and issues of this form of procurement. It also attempts to identify the critical success factors of ECI. A case study is conducted. The results reveal that the ECI approach had allowed all parties to work together to provide early innovations and cost savings, and to integrate greater constructability into the design. Overall, the findings from the case studies provide a valuable insight and understanding of the current practices of ECI projects in the South Australian construction industry.
