ABSTRACT
This chapter concentrates on various global integrated project delivery (IPD) forms known to us at the time of writing this book. IPD forms evolve, and as we saw in Chapter 2 in the application of the Collaboration Framework as a procurement strategy design tool, a very wide range of collaborative integrated project delivery (IPD) forms may be ‘created’ to suit particular purposes. This chapter builds on Chapter 1 Table 1.2 that contrasted ten characteristics of IPD with non-IPD forms to provide a more extensive description of IPD forms from the perspective of how they have evolved and are evolving in a number of selected countries across the globe. In this way we intend to provide readers with a well-informed global sense of where this field is heading and how and why that trajectory is occurring.
