Benefits of an IDB Team Approach Integration of all Design & Construction Resources at all Stages of a Project 1. Root Cause Evaluation Stage
Greater access to structures Greater thoroughness of condition assessment investigation Investigation with alternative repairs in mind
2. Design Phase
Alternative options discussed with cost estimates before proceeding on design solution
3. Construction Phase
Reduces unforeseen conditions, risk and change orders

Best Projects for an IDB Approach Where root cause of the problem(s)
Requires significant effort to uncover May be related to multiple issues
Where the magnitude of the problem is unknown Complex design and construction repair Invasive repairs while maintaining occupancy Repair where multiple solutions are possible Where solutions or cost may vary greatly depending on the results of the investigation Where accurate early estimates are important Typical Projects: Structural Repairs | Façade Repairs | Moisture Intrusion

Summary: Why IDB?
Team (engineer/contractor) approach to investigation yields improved solutions
More thorough investigation
Creative alternative solutions
Involving contractor during “at risk investigation” creates cost estimates that improve decision making
Confidence in the cost estimate
Confidence in the feasibility of the repair
Compare costs of alternative solutions
Phased Design – construction when you need it, reduces schedule
VE options along the design build process – reduces cost and schedule growth, and solves unforeseen conditions better
Single source responsibility from investigation through warranty
