Owners Forum
The challenge before DBIA is to determine the most appropriate, effective and timely strategies to address the needs, facilitate the opportunities and minimize the obstacles faced by owners as they seek to understand and utilize the project delivery method most appropriate to their needs. At this forum you will have the opportunity to meet face-to-face with other owners experienced in all methods of project delivery. You and your peers will share your views, answer questions and discuss how DBIA can further support owner needs—without any pressure from those selling products and services. DBIA is looking for the most appropriate effective and timely strategies to address the needs, facilitate the opportunities and minimize the obstacles faced by owners as they seek to understand and utilize the project delivery method most appropriate to their needs.
Owners wishing to attend only the Forum may do so at no charge. However, registration is still required. For those wishing to attend the entire conference, limited complimentary registrations are available through a newly created Owner Education Fund, or you may register at a substantially discounted rate.
Owner Education Fund
The goal of the Fund is to advance the awareness, understanding and use of design-build as a project delivery method by owners. The complimentary registration provides an opportunity for owners to network with other owners, and to share their experiences with various project delivery methods.
This fund covers complimentary registration only (a $500 value) to the 2009 Design-Build for Water/Wastewater Conference. Winners will be responsible for all other related costs, including travel and lodging. A maximum of ten (10) winners will be selected.
DBIA is currently taking applications. Deadline to submit is January 12, 2009. To view and complete your application please use the following links:
