MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE

 

Chair: Patty Myer McKinstry - Seattle, WA - pattym@mckinstry.com

The Membership Committee currently has 9 members and is focusing on inviting Architects to join DBIA and the Northwest Region.

Why Join DBIA - The Integrated Services Association

Can your team afford not to be on the cutting edge of what is happening with design-build delivery? 

In response to the emergence of design-build project delivery as a significant force in the design and construction field, the Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA) was founded to provide a voice supporting this integrated process.  Design-build embraces architecture/engineering and construction services under a single contract, thereby re-combining the vital roles of designer and constructor.  Design-build practitioners come from a long tradition of excellence and, while honoring their past, look to the future with innovative design and information-age management techniques to continue those high standards.

The Institute’s purpose is not only to provide a voice for its members and all design-build project owners and practitioners, but also to improve the level of practice on a continuing basis; to disseminate educational information; and to furnish advice and support to facility owners and users.  DBIA members are remaking the image of America’s construction industry – in this country and worldwide.

Some of the other reasons that make joining so compelling are:

This is the only organization that includes members from all professions of the project delivery cycle (owners, developers, designers, contractors and suppliers).
