About this file

This document is an infographic describing the end-to-end process for Progressive Design-Build (PDB) projects utilizing Other Transaction (OT) agreements under 10 U.S.C. § 2808a for Military Construction (MILCON) projects.

The PDB with OT approach consists of two agreement phases. Phase 1 (Design & Preconstruction Services) uses MILCON Design Funds and progresses through eight pre-agreement steps: Project Requirements definition, Request for Qualifications (RFQ), Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) submission, down-select, pitch presentations, Qualifications Based Selection (QBS), negotiation of OT Phase 1 services, and award of the OT Phase 1 Agreement. Phase 1 execution includes kickoff and alignment, schematic design, budget lockdown, design development, preconstruction readiness activities, and an off-ramp decision point. Phase 2 (Final Design & Construction) uses MILCON Construction Funds and authorizes construction when cost, scope, schedule, and risk are acceptable. Phase 2 involves overlapping final design/construction documents and construction execution in work packages, followed by red zone commissioning, beneficial occupancy, and turnover/construction completion. The process emphasizes five core benefits: early alignment between government and industry, open book collaboration with transparent estimating, iterative and flexible strategy evolution, off-ramp protection providing government exit points at key milestones, and overlapped execution optimizing design and construction. Governance includes tailored oversight, periodic reporting, and risk management throughout both phases.
