Supporting Retrofits by Improving Procurement & Project Delivery
AEEA is pleased to add to our Retrofit Resource Library a series of LinkedIn posts authored by Michael Driedger of MCW.
The first post explores the ‘Archaeology of Inefficiency’ by looking at how the design and construction industry buries its competitive edge under layers of manual workflows, treating the status quo as a ‘free’ baseline while ignoring the massive hidden costs of standing still.
Part 2 focuses on how a team is selected to build something new advocating for Qualifications-Based Selection.
While new construction deals with the predictable, deep energy retrofits force us to confront the invisible variables hidden behind decades of old drywall. Part 3 of this series breaks down why outdated contracts and flat PDFs are sabotaging Canada’s federal retrofit wave—and how progressive delivery models could save it.
