Selecting and Using an Owner Advisor in Design-Build

Design-Build Institute of America

Call them what you wish – owner advisor, owner’s consultant, owner representative, owner’s engineer, owner agent, criteria professional/consultant or A/E1 – they all serve the same purpose: to guide an owner through the process of advertising, selecting, hiring and working with the best design-build team for their project. Working from the assumption that the owner has already chosen to use design-build, this primer can help an owner select an owner advisor who will guide them through the process.
