Book Description
"Best Value Procurement" presents more than fifteen years of research results on how to maximize performance in a seemingly unstable industry. This book focuses on the source of poor performance in the construction industry, and how the Information Measurement Theory (IMT) and the Performance Information Procurement System (PIPS) can help minimize and solve these problems.


"Best Value Procurement" answers many industry questions, including:
  • How to identify the “best value”
  • How to compare price and performance
  • How to collect, store, and use past performance information
  • How to implement the PIPS process
  • How to sustain a best-value process in the construction industry
  • How to increase performance by minimizing management
  • How to increase quality without spending more
  • How to minimize litigation and increase partnering with very little management
