Beyond Low Bid: Exploring Better Construction Delivery Methods

Brown Edwards Season 1 Episode 16

In this episode of Construct-ive Conversations, host Eddie Thompson from Brown Edwards welcomes Tina McPhail, Executive Vice President and CFO of Pray Construction. Together, they dive into the limitations of the traditional "low bid" model for public construction projects in West Virginia and explore alternative delivery methods that could provide better value and results. Tina shares her passion for implementing legislative changes to allow design-build approaches already used in surrounding states, highlighting how these collaborative methods can lead to better outcomes, reduced change orders, and more efficient project delivery. Drawing from real examples, this conversation offers valuable insights into the future of construction procurement in West Virginia.
