The Building Owner’s Assessment Tool: Helping You Understand Your Culture and its Project Delivery Ramifications (BOAT) helps owners determine their organization’s decision-making profile to better understand the challenges and alignments between their decision-making profile and different types of project delivery methods.
Using BOAT, building owners can reflect on their decision-making structures, cultures, and project management strategies to mitigate roadblocks and pain points during project delivery, and have productive conversations with their project teams to identify organizational challenges, set expectations around the work, and design specific processes to address challenges. This can help the owner and project team be proactive in addressing owner strengths and weaknesses before a project begins.
