IMPLEMENTATION OF DESIGN AND BUILD MODEL IN CROATIAN CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

New market laws impose new project delivery methods in order of greater efficiency. Design and Build can certainly be regarded as one of most common in this context. Although worldwide proven, Design and Build has not yet taken hold on the slowly-changing construction market of The southern east Europe (SEE). The main aim of the this research was to collect data that will indicate the presence and previous experiences in applying Design and Build models of procurement in the construction Croatian market, or market awareness of alternative methods of project delivery as well as the possibility of implementation of this model in the Croatian construction industry. Among other things, the research was to examine the general opinion on the Design and Build procurement model by profession, specifically investors, design/supervision and contractors separately, to give a realistic insight into the perspective of different participants in the construction. We have found that neither half of respondents is familiar with Design and Build project delivery method, and only one third of subjects did participated in that kind of projects. Most important conclusion is that 89% procent of respondents who participated on Design and Build projects think that model is applicable in Croatian construction industry in comparison to only 37% of total sample who has shared the same oppinion.
