Investigating the challenges of designing and executing an integrated design process in the context of HDAPs

在过去的几十年里，在建筑和工程领域开展业务变得越来越困难。这些困难源于项目日益复杂，以及越来越多的标准，指导和限制在加拿大的建筑施工项目（LEED等）。为了解决这些困难，集成设计过程（IDP）的概念已经提出。由于IDP的概念是最近才出现的，公司正在努力有效地采用和利用它。此外，该行业正日益转向将大型建筑项目高度分解为各种关注点（例如建筑，工程，建筑等）。然后分配给不同的公司。

Over the last decades, doing business in the building architecture and engineering sector has become increasingly difficult. The difficulties stem from the growing complexity of projects as well as the increasing number of standards that guide and constraints building construction projects in Canada (LEED, etc.). In order to tackle such difficulties, the concept of an integrated design process (IDP) has been put forward. Since the concept of an IDP is recent, companies are struggling to adopt and leverage it effectively. In addition, there is a growing shift in the industry towards highly decomposing large construction projects into various concerns (e.g. architecture, engineering, construction, etc.) that are then allocated to different firms.
