This episode I was able to get Greg Martz from GM Development, Dan Lawson from Meyer Najem Construction and Tim Jensen from The Veridus Group to get in depth discussions on the Build Operate Transfer (BOT) project delivery method following Indiana State Statute IC 5-23. Between these three they have over 100 BOT projects completed in the State of Indiana ranging from Municipalities fire stations, police stations, civic centers, parks & recreations and libraries to name a few. BOT allows for the design, construction, operation, management, maintenance, and securing financing of the cost of a public facility to be partially or entirely the responsibility of the operator. During this episode we will walk through the BOT process, discuss it's benefits as well as it's risks and add lessons learned from each person's perspective. This episode is a good road map for anyone considering using the BOT as a delivery method on their capital projects.

While attending the AIM Conference, I, along with Tim Jensen and Pete Olson from The Veridus Group, decided to take advantage of the exhibit hall and have people join us in discussions.  On this episode, we sat down with Fred Prazeau, the Owner of Context Design in Indianapolis to talk Landscape and Urban Design. This led us to talk about the Town of McCordsville and their investment into the new McCords Square. As we talked, Tim Gropp happened to walk by and joined us on the podcast.  In early planning, some of the bigger challenges Cities and Towns are facing are investing in Quality of Life. This seems to be the bones of every decision where developers are investing in their downtowns like never before. Creating great streetscapes and downtowns have been transformative to revitalize downtowns  Communities must have a passionate leader out advocating for their community to make sure the projects are successes across administration changes, committed to vision, adapting, changing, morphing it and making sure the development community sees the congruency.

The construction delivery methods that are discussed on the podcast.Design, Bid, Build (DBB) - This project delivery method customarily involves three sequential project phases: design, procurement, and construction.Design Build (DB) - A project delivery method that combines architectural and engineering design services with construction performance under one contract.CMa - In theCMA, the owner utilizes a CM as its principal agent to advise on or manage the process over the life of the project, or specific phases of the project.CMr / CMc - Construction Manger at Risk or Construction Manager as Construction - A project delivery method in which the Construction Manager acts as a consultant to the owner in the development and design phases, but assumes the risk for construction performance as the equivalent of a general contractor holding all trade subcontracts during the construction phase. This delivery method is also known as CM/GCBuild Operate Transfer -transfer is a form of project financing, wherein a private entity receives a concession from the private or public sector to finance, design, construct, and operate a facility stated in the concession contract.Integrated Project Delivery (IPD): A project delivery method that contractually requires collaboration among the primary parties – owner, designer, and builder – so that the risk, responsibility and liability for project delivery are collectively managed and appropriately shared. Some communities use multiple methods to deliver multiple projects.
