Best Practices in Delivery of EPC/E&C Projects

How mutual respect for and appreciation of diverse perspectives and ideas foster collaboration and lead to successful Design-Build project delivery

The economic growth in India in recent years and the clients’ increasing preference for a single-point responsibility under design-build, for their projects, have led to a surge in opportunities in public as well as private sectors for Indian EPC companies to participate in and contribute to this growth story. In 2016, the NITI Aayog directed all government agencies to expeditiously examine measures to substitute Item rate contracts to EPC (turnkey contracts) wherever appropriate. This policy change and guidelines thereof will further boost the projected share of design-build contracts in government projects in the years to come. Many states in India allow Design-Build procurement.
