Background on GC/CM in Washington State
Legislature granted GC/CM authority in 1991
The authorization will expire in 2007 Statutory requirements to use GC/CM
– Over $10 million AND• Complex scheduling, OR• Existing facility has to remain open, OR• Early GC/CM involvement is critical to
project success 2003-05 Capital Budget instructs JLARC to
review GC/CM in major public works projects.

Are performance indicators and benchmarks available to compare?
The state does not currently collect consistent reliable state and local-level data to analyze project performance
– Cost-per-square-foot– Cost Growth– Time Growth– Quality– Change Orders
To address the lack of data, JLARC:– Compiled an inventory of GC/CM projects– Conducted a survey of those projects– Developed 21 case studies of DBB and GC/CM

Characteristics Present in Washington
Schedule– GC/CM projects appear to adhere closer
to projected schedule than DBB projects.
Negotiated Compensation– Agencies appear to be successfully
negotiating their guaranteed contract cost and staying close to their original budget.
Collaborative Team Relationship– GC/CM provides a more collaborative
approach in most cases.
Report Pgs. 21-22, 26-27
![Page 14: Assessment of General Contractor/ Construction Manager Contracting Procedures Preliminary Report Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee Jill Satran.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e705503460f94b6d83a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
Partially Present in Washington
Project Complexity– Generally agencies are using GC/CM on
complex projects.– However, there is some evidence that
agencies may be using GC/CM primarily to avoid problems associated with DBB.
Experienced and Involved Owner– Most agencies are investing additional
resources in managing GC/CM.
– We found a few instances where agencies lacked experience or involvement on the owner’s part.
Report Pgs. 20-21, 25-26
![Page 15: Assessment of General Contractor/ Construction Manager Contracting Procedures Preliminary Report Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee Jill Satran.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e705503460f94b6d83a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Inconclusive – Insufficient Data
Shared Risk– Some owners may believe more risk is being
shifted to GC/CM than is occurring.
Project Cost– GC/CM increases preconstruction and, in
some cases, management costs.
– Impact on change orders, claims and litigation is inconclusive.
Project Quality– It is unclear whether GC/CM contracting
methods produce better quality designs or facilities.
Report Pgs. 23-25, 28-30

Capital Projects Review Board
Legislature created CPRB in 2005 to develop and recommend:
– Criteria to determine effective and feasible use of alternative contracting methods;
– Qualification standards for general contractors bidding on alternative public works projects; and
– Policies to further enhance the quality, efficiency, and accountability of capital construction projects.
JLARC developed analytical tools that could be used by the Board
Report Pgs. 33-34
![Page 17: Assessment of General Contractor/ Construction Manager Contracting Procedures Preliminary Report Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee Jill Satran.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e705503460f94b6d83a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Conclusions and Recommendation: 1
Conclusion– Some agencies may be using GC/CM
to overcome perceived deficiencies in the low-bid process in DBB.
Recommendation– The Legislature should further analyze
the implications of the low-bid requirement on major capital projects.
Report Pg. 35
![Page 18: Assessment of General Contractor/ Construction Manager Contracting Procedures Preliminary Report Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee Jill Satran.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e705503460f94b6d83a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Conclusions and Recommendation: 2
Conclusion– Executive-level oversight is critical to the ongoing
development of sound public works contracting policy.
Recommendation2A: The CPRB should be convened quickly to
ensure the Board is prepared to provide recommendations to the Legislature before the 2007 termination date of GC/CM.
2B: The CPRB should consider adding to its work plan improving the consistency of GC/CM project documents across projects and jurisdictions.
Report Pgs. 35-36

19
Conclusions and Recommendation: 3
Conclusion– Lack of sound, reliable, and consistent data
collection is a major impediment to understanding the impacts of GC/CM.
Recommendation3A: The CPRB should develop standardized
statewide performance indicators and benchmarks for all major public works projects.
3B: Project performance data should be collected on state and local projects to form a portfolio of projects.
