The final outcome from a negotiation process may be varied; however Walker and Walker (2015) identify three broad procurement approaches (p. 16-37).


1.    Traditional—Segregated Design and Delivery Procurement Forms;
2.    Focus on Integrated Design and Delivery Procurement Arrangements—Emphasising Planning and Control;
3.    Focus on Integrated Project Teams—Emphasizing Collaboration and Coordination


With each of the approaches breaking down to a number of sub-forms:
•    1A Design Bid Build (DBB) (p. 17);
•    1B Cost reimbursement (Cost-Plus) (p. 18);
•    2A Design and Construct (D&C) (p. 19);
•    2B integrated Supply Chain Management (SCM) (p. 20+);
•    2C Management Contracting (MC) (p. 21);
•    2D consortia of Joint Venture (JV) contractors (p. 21+);
•    2E the Build-Own-Operate-Transfer (BOOT) family (p. 23+);
•    3A partnering philosophies (p. 25+);
•    3B integrated solutions; including Competitive Dialogue (CD), Integrated Project Delivery (IDP) and delivery consortia/partner philosophies (p. 27+);
•    3C alliancing including Project Alliances (PA), Design Alliances (DA) and program Service Alliances (SA) (p. 29+);
•    4 Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) (p. 35);

•    5 Framework agreements (p. 36).


Recommend and advise your preferred form of procurement as an outcome from the negotiation process for each project.
