When builders choose to increase the energy efficiency and performance of their products, they generally use one of two strategies. The first is spec and purchase, which treats energy efficiency and building performance as simply swapping technology measures. In this scenario, purchasing department staffers negotiate pricing on the individual measures that are needed and then hand off the project to the field personnel for implementation. The other strategy is the systems approach, where a builder optimizes the performance through design integration and systems trade-offs and synergies, striving to achieve the highest level of energy efficiency and building performance at the lowest cost. A building company that actively manages and supports a learning organization and places a high value on customer, trade, and employee satisfaction tends to use a systems approach. One successful strategy for builders to build a learning organization is to create a partnering approach to relationships with trades, vendors, suppliers, and consultants. High performance homes require a high degree of coordination and significant interdependencies among various systems in order to perform properly, meet customer expectations, and minimize risks for the builder. Responsibility for the key performance attributes is shared across the project team and must be well coordinated. Historically, relationships in the residential construction industry are adversarial, with multiple disconnects and conflicts among the builder, subcontractors, material and product suppliers, and manufacturers. Partnering is a strategy a builder can use to identify and work with all players in the value chain, integrating them to satisfy the end customer in a way that mutually benefits all parties involved.
