Helping project teams collaborate, resolve issues, and achieve successful outcomes.
Even highly experienced project teams can lose time and momentum when communication breaks down, expectations are unclear, or issues are not addressed effectively. Construction Partnering brings owners, contractors, designers, and other project stakeholders together to establish how they will work as one team. Through a structured, facilitated process, participants build shared expectations, strengthen communication, and agree on how issues will be addressed to support strong team performance and successful project outcomes.
- Initial Partnering Workshops
- Follow-On Partnering
- Team Vision, Goals and Commitments
- Communication and Issue Resolution
- Team Performance and Continuous Improvement
The result is a more communicative, collaborative, and aligned team, equipped to use its Team Charter, Issue Resolution Ladder, and Partnering commitments to support strong team performance throughout the project.
Concept Design Workshops (CDW)
Bring the right people together to develop an aligned concept design.
Concept Design Workshops bring owners, designers, contractors, users, and other key stakeholders together to collaboratively evaluate design alternatives, surface and resolve project issues, and build alignment around the developing concept. As a neutral facilitator, Synergy Forces guides the discussion process so participants can focus on the technical, operational, safety, and project considerations needed to move toward an effective concept design.
Our CDW facilitation may include:
- Engaging cross-functional project teams
- Exploring and evaluating design alternatives
- Identifying and resolving project issues
- Addressing operational and safety requirements
- Building alignment around project goals and constraints
- Clarifying decisions and next steps
When Could an Independent Facilitator Help?
Create the space for productive discussion, alignment, and sound decisions.
An independent facilitator can add value when a project team needs focused, structured discussion guided by someone who can remain neutral and help all perspectives be heard. This can be especially useful at project start-up, during concept design, and at key points throughout the project when alignment, communication, or issue resolution needs attention.
At Project Start-Up
Establish shared expectations, working relationships, communication protocols, and a process for resolving issues.
Throughout the Project
Reconnect the team, assess emerging challenges, and identify opportunities for improvement.
During Concept Design
Guide owners, contractors, designers, users, and other stakeholders to evaluate alternatives, resolve issues, and build alignment around the developing concept.
