Introduction:

Owners are presented with different options for their project delivery process, which include the

traditional method (design-bid-build), design-build delivery or BOT methods. The suitability of

the project delivery system (PDS) selected for a project greatly influences the efficiency to

conduct a project. It is not an easy task to select an appropriate PDS as a large amount of

ambiguous information exists.

While no project delivery option is perfect, one may be better suited than another based on the

requirements of a particular project. These requirements should be evaluated to determine which

of the various options would most likely produce the best outcome for the owners. The proper

selection of a project delivery method is based on a high degree of technical factors and low

construction costs.

Task:

Do a research and write 500 words about the following points:

1. What is the most common project delivery method used in the construction industry worldwide

2. Define and explain the method

3. Give two examples of projects using the chosen delivery method in Kuwait

4. Is this method applicable to Kuwait? Yes or no and why?
