Description
Introduction The variants of procurement methods available today metamorphosized from the need to improve construction project delivery, that is, project completion within budget and time. According to Daniel [1], the emphasis of procurement methods is on optimizing all parameters involved in project delivery namely, time, cost and quality. Procurement of projects within these constraints has continued to be a challenge to the design team, the contractors, and managers of investments [2]. Traditionally, construction projects starts with the client's brief on which designs are based. The Architect and engineers prepare designs, in collaboration with quantity surveyor who advises on the cost implications of design variables. Tender process afterwards produces the contractor for the execution of the work. On the award, the successful contractor executes the work as designed under the supervision of the consultants. Thus, the approach separates the design, tendering process and construction as separate tasks. This separation of activities also led to sequencing of activities in which design is completed before construction commences.
