Description: DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION PROJECT DELIVERY INNOVATION ***** Process innovation in the design and construction industries is far to rare. Even with access to powerful tools such as CADD and the Internet, many opportunities for process improvement are overlooked and problems are repeatedly ignored. Within this course, cross-discipline project teams will use contemporary business tools to evaluate long- standing industry practices and develop ideas for process innovation. At the end of the semester, students will present innovation concepts to members of the Project Delivery Innovation Forum, a group of industry leaders that may select student ideas for further research on real projects. ***** Instructor(s): Barbara White ***** Also offered as ARCH 616
