As a result of 1800+ tests, researchers have concluded that a primary cause in low project performance (time, cost and customer satisfaction) is the traditional owner-vendor relationship in which the owner uses a design, bid and build (DBB) approach. Overall focus must shift from first-cost mentality to life-cycle/total-cost-of-ownership.
