OAA Webinar: Reframing The Project: Project & Operational Management in the Design Endeavour

Sometimes, when architects talk about "The Project" they mean the client's building construction. Sometimes, they mean the design commission. Sometimes, they mean the design and construction. Inconsistency in the use of the term "The Project" leads to a lack of clarity in responsibilities and management approaches. The Canadian Handbook of Practice for Architects 3rd Edition reframes the term "project" and introduces the broadly accepted term "program" to describe the combination of project(s) and operation(s) that constitute the design endeavour. Distinguishing between activities of architectural practice that are project-based from operation-based is not just a semantic exercise. Clarity in the characteristics of practice activities can leads to clearer boundaries of responsibility, and more efficient and effective management approaches across the design project life cycle, and construction contract administration and general review operations. This OAA Continuing Education Webinar Series episode is led by Donald Ardiel, an architect, educator, and project manager. He has been Director of Practice Support/Director of Syllabus at the RAIC, the editor of the RAIC's Fee Guide 2nd Edition, and Editor-in-Chief of The Canadian Handbook of Practice for Architects 3rd Edition.
