The IPD Advantage: A Blueprint for Faster Builds, Fewer RFIs, and Stronger ROI

Revizto is proud to present The Integrated Project Delivery Advantage: A Blueprint for Faster Builds, Fewer RFIs, and Stronger ROI – a white paper redefining how projects can be delivered across the AECO industry. Backed by data and insights from over 60 senior industry leaders, this report explores the rise of digitally-enabled Integrated Project Delivery (IPD 2.0). Inside, you’ll discover: 

• Lessons learned from 60+ AECO leaders
• The biggest barriers to IPD 2.0 adoption, and how to overcome them
• Practical recommendations for government, asset owners, and contractors
• A blueprint for building faster, fairer, and more collaboratively

The Rise of IPD 2.0: The Next Generation of Project Delivery

Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) is built on early collaboration, shared risk, and trust. Unlike the siloed teams and finger-pointing common in traditional ‘design–bid–build’ methodologies, IPD unites everyone under a shared contract where risks and rewards are distributed fairly. But scaling IPD across large, complex projects has historically been challenging.

IPD 2.0 takes this methodology to the next level. By combining IPD principles with Revizto’s next-generation digital collaboration tool, IPD 2.0 ensures clients, designers, contractors, and trades are aligned from day one. With teams, models, and data connected in a single shared environment, IPD 2.0 delivers faster builds, stronger ROI, and better collaboration across the entire project team.

Real Results from IPD 2.0

The numbers are impossible to ignore. On projects applying IPD 2.0, teams reported:

• RFIs reduced by over 80% before construction began
• Project timelines cut by months
• Projects delivered on budget, with fewer disputes

“On some projects you can have hundreds of RFIs in the first weeks of construction alone… but on our project we averaged just three RFIs a week through the build phase. It sounds like common sense, but what we did was to actually focus on design during the design stage.” – Mark Pearson, Head of Design, Leighs Construction

Proof It Works: Lincoln University’s Waimarie Science Hub

New Zealand’s $90M Lincoln University Waimarie Science Hub project is proof that IPD 2.0 works in practice. By engaging subcontractors early, prioritizing collaboration, and using Revizto as a digital hub, the project team reduced coordination conflicts by over 80%, eliminated hundreds of RFIs, and delivered the award-winning facility ahead of schedule and on budget.

“IPD enabled us to re-scope our design role into the contractor’s world – fewer hours on site, but far more impact upfront – reducing coordination conflicts by over 80% before construction even started.” – Brad Sara, Principal, Warren and Mahoney

Why This White Paper Matters

Construction is at a crossroads. Costs are rising, delays are common, and traditional delivery models are no longer fit for purpose. This white paper goes beyond theory to tackle the barriers of adopting IPD 2.0 head-on – from procurement and policy, to trust and leadership. In an industry where disputes and cost blowouts remain the norm, The Integrated Project Delivery Advantage shows how IPD 2.0 can transform project delivery.

“This white paper is more than just a document; it’s a call to action… The success of the Waimarie Science Hub is a testament to this belief, proving that Integrated Project Delivery isn’t just a theory, but a practical and powerful catalyst for the transformation our industry so desperately needs.” – Jason Howden, Chief Innovation Officer, Revizto
