What is IPD?
Integrated project delivery (IPD) is a collaborative building delivery method.
IPD integrates diverse stakeholders—owners, engineers, architects, construction companies, contractors, and government agencies—to form a collaborative team under one contract. IPD also incorporates a variety of systems, practices, and business and financial structures. It is a joint venture approach, with shared risks and rewards.

Successful IPD has been achieved through many different approaches, including design-assist, design-build, and public-private partnership.
The goal of IPD is faster delivery of a high-quality, cost-effective project.
