Best Practices in Design-Build Contracting for Highway Projects in Texas
The 'Turn Key Construction' project involves the development of a statistically based specification for the procurement of low volume highway projects using the Design-Build (DB) methods of contracting. This project takes the current DB procurement techniques to a point which will permit contract awards on a lowest and best bid basis. This is possible due to the relatively simple nature of highway design (as opposed to building design). TxDOT has done extensive research into pavement life cycle cost and its relationship to pavement design parameters. FPS-19 permits the Department to evaluate proposed designs against the standard of the design generated by FPS-19. It also allows evaluation on expected life cycle maintenance costs of proposed designs using the FPS-19 algorithm and an adaptation of utility theory. Finally, because of the large body of pavement performance data available through TxDOT, the project is able to produce a statistically based specification for the delivery of a DB project without the need for guarantees or warranties.
