Integrated Project Delivery Comes to Illinois

Power joined partners – Integrated Facilities Solutions, InterWork Architects, Primera Engineers, Dickerson Engineering and NorthShore – in signing one of the first Integrated Form of Agreement (IFOA) contracts in the state of Illinois. Contractual commitments of the integrated team included:

  • Reducing RFIs and a turnaround time of three working days
  • Eliminating waste through prefabrication and reduced effort of installation
  • Maintaining the target value budget
  • Ensuring zero lost time incidents for the project
Creative Schedule Management Through IPD Techniques

Collaborative pull-planning provided project completion two weeks early, despite the addition of the second story which required a second set of Village permits.
