Abstract

Procurement strategies that enable early contractor involvement (ECI) in design may enhance off-site manufacturing (OSM) by overcoming previously identified barriers to its uptake. Involving constructors during the design stage can reduce the risk of design buildability issues, and standardising traditionally bespoke ECI processes may help overcome cultural resistance to unfamiliar OSM technology. Following literature review and using case studies, document analysis and legal doctrine, a two-stage ECI conceptual process model for New Zealand is proposed. This was tested and refined following feedback at a conference. The model comprises a first-stage pre-construction contract and a second-stage standard-form construction contract. Key process variables are considered with solutions to provide collaboration and transparency while maintaining competitive fixed pricing across the supply chain. Legal doctrine analysis is used to distinguish between design buildability obligations and design codes compliance. The model contributes towards the development of a standard form for pre-construction contracts.

通过早期承包商参与(ECI)在新西兰加强非现场制造
使早期承包商参与(ECI)设计的采购策略可以通过克服先前确定的障碍来增强非现场制造(OSM)。在设计阶段让建造者参与进来可以降低设计可建造性问题的风险,并且标准化传统定制的ECI流程可能有助于克服对不熟悉的OSM技术的文化阻力。在文献回顾和使用案例研究、文件分析和法律理论之后,提出了一个两阶段的新西兰ECI概念过程模型。我们在一次会议上测试并改进了这一方法。该模型包括第一阶段施工前合同和第二阶段标准格式施工合同。在解决方案中考虑关键流程变量,以提供协作和透明度,同时在整个供应链中保持有竞争力的固定价格。法律理论分析用于区分设计可建造性义务和设计规范遵从性。该模型有助于制定施工前合同的标准形式。
