ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode, hosts Nick Soto, Carly Trout, and Evan Hendershot from CMAA are joined by Daphne Bryant, executive director of the ACEC Research Institute, and Dr. Keith Molenaar, of the University of Colorado Boulder, to unpack the growing momentum behind Progressive Design-Build (PDB). Drawing from the ACEC report "Progressive Design-Build: Practice, Perceptions, and Potential," the conversation highlights how PDB fosters transparency, collaboration, and stronger outcomes compared to traditional delivery methods. The discussion also explores what’s driving adoption across sectors, how risk is more effectively managed, and the qualities that enable lasting owner–design builder partnerships.
