“…The key purpose of co-location is to facilitate direct interaction and building of trust, which are considered informal mechanisms. Similar findings have been made in previous studies, where physical sites are seen as vital for interaction and integration (Dossick et al 2013). Another interesting finding, which is in line with previous studies (Kim and Dossick, 2011), is that across the cases, the formal mechanisms, such as the IPD contract and the use of Lean Construction and BIM, were used in some form of combination, and seen by the interviewees as important to facilitate the collaboration.…”

“…Once the contract was signed, a kick-off meeting was organized among the three team members. In a study on how the collaboration among team members evolved over time in this case, Dossick et al (2013) found that various relationship building events led to a joint collaborative norm, not only among the three team members but also with hospital stakeholders, engineers and subcontractors. For instance, these players convened to test design alternatives by using physical mock-ups.…”

“…Increasingly, health-care clients are committed to the IPD concept (see e.g. Kim and Dossick, 2011;Dossick et al 2013). However, how IPD health-care contracts incorporate abilities to respond to future contingencies is still unknown, as is the way construction parties use both formal and relational governance mechanisms to cope with changes and needs for flexibility and adaptability throughout the design and construction process.…”

This research examines the interplay between formal and informal contracting in integrated project delivery (IPD). It investigates how the interplay enables parties in health-care construction projects to cope with uncertainty and complexities, due to, among others, changing demands. New delivery models based on collaborative interaction, such as IPD models, often rely on relational contracting principles, defined as the simultaneous use of formal contracts and informal relational mechanisms to govern relationships between partners. Five case studies of IPD health-care construction projects in the USA and Norway are presented and analysed. The results show that the projects rely heavily on the formal contracts and structures to stimulate collaboration between the project team members and to enhance problem-solving. However, informal mechanisms play just as an important role. While formal mechanisms facilitate the building of trust and personal relationships between the partners, the formal mechanisms are in turn created and recreated through informal practices, illustrating a mutual constitutive relationship between the two types of mechanisms. The findings also indicate that previous experiences reinforce informal mechanisms in the project. The paper concludes that IPD models involve a complex interplay between formal and informal mechanisms, which engenders commitment resulting in joint problem-solving and responsibility throughout the construction process. The findings also indicate that even if the dynamic context and future uncertainties in health care are taken into account, dealing with such flexibility issues is not at the core of the current IPD model.

“…According to the above formula, dependence degree k D is monoclinic In the data processing of neighborhood rough sets, data will present differences in order of magnitudes and dimensions by the definition of rough set [11]. In order to obtain accurate data processing results, original data should be normalized before data processing of Eq.…”

Faced with the existing problems in the construction industry, project managers have been aware that traditional project delivery patterns cannot satisfy the current building industry's pursuit of high-quality economic benefits or cope with the increasing volume and complexity of modern buildings. Therefore, whole-process comprehensive management has become a new development trend for engineering projects, the traditional project delivery pattern should be changed, and early-stage communication, cooperation, and information sharing among project participants should be strengthened. As for the BIM and IPD collaborative pattern, the emphasis is laid on collaboration among project members, and the core idea lies in benefit and risk sharing and full consideration of human resources, commercial structure and engineering system of projects. The advent of IPD pattern has well solved problematic issues encountered in engineering projects, where risk problem has attracted the highest attention. Risk factors of IPD projects were reduced and screened out based on attribute reduction theory of rough sets, and primary risk factors influencing smooth implementation of IPD projects were obtained.

“…It was reported that the team achieved substantially lower number of requests for information (RFI) compared to previous projects where IPD and BIM were not used. In another healthcare project using IPD and BIM, Dossick et al (2013) found that with IPD, the project team was able to establish an "integrated culture" early and then BIM kiosk served as an information hub and contributed to strengthening collaborative norms.…”
