In 2020 Major Road Projects Victoria (MRPV) embarked on an ambitious reform of its approach to procurement. It came to be known as the Program Delivery Approach (PDA).
This research project ‘took the temperature’ of the Australian construction industry and identified areas which might benefit from further research and consideration, with a view to maximising the prospects of the community, and the industry, enjoying the best return it can on the very significant investment made in the industry.
This research project sought to assess the current use and effectiveness of the range of standard forms of construction contract in Australia, particularly in terms of their ability to reflect an appropriately-balanced risk allocation and to facilitate efficient project administration.
