§ Respect the design – reason we hire the architect § Each project is unique
§ Schedule constraints § Budget constraints § Market constraints
§ Identify and mitigate risk by thorough due diligence § Use the subcontractors and vendors to help find solutions (most
experienced) § Be prepared for the unforeseen and be quick to change paths –
nothing is set in stone § Keep an open mind, listen to everyone but draw your own
conclusions § Great talent – seek it out and pull together a collaborative team to
move the project forward
