The owner, designer and construction managers worked collaboratively on Foisie Innovation Studio to deliver an impressive, multi-use facility in a timely, and cost-effective manner. Using the data collected during construction, this report evaluates the cost and schedule by completing an Earned Value Analysis. This report also analyzed the construction process of this project using Building Information Modeling (BIM), and identifies future potential uses of BIM and other technologies in construction. Finally, an alternative structural design for the second floor roof is proposed and its cost is determined.
