Download or read book Use of Incentives in Performance Based Logistics Contracting written by Gregory Sanders and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-04-19 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional contracting is primarily transactional, rewarding contractors when deliveries are made or certain process milestones are met. Performance-Based Logistic (PBL) contracting seeks to base contractor incentives on ongoing performance measures to achieve reliability and cost savings. Key to the success of these arrangements are the incentives that align the interests of the customer and the vendor. This report describes the incentives used in PBL contracts, identifies best practices, and provides recommendations for effective incentives going forward. The study team interviewed PBL practitioners including defense-unique contractors, defense-commercial contractors, and experts who are knowledgeable in the government perspective in the United States and abroad. The team supplemented these interviews by analyzing a PBL dataset of U.S. Department of Defense contracts. Of the four identified categories of incentives—time-based, financial, scope, and other—interviews found that time-based incentives stood out for their reliable appeal and relative underuse in the United States.

This book addresses two questions: i) why so many construction incentive schemes are not delivering the desired outcome? and ii) what will make incentive works under different circumstances?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aligning both owner and contractor objectives is widely thought to be a catalyst for better project performance. For this very reason, contract incentives are employed in order to identify and ensure focus on the owner's goals. The scope of this report is to research the extent of use and consequent effects of construction contract incentives offered by owners. The relative use by owners of construction phase incentives will be characterized, and an incentive use index assigned to each project. Additionally, the impacts of incentive use in terms of cost, schedule, and safety will be investigated. A relationship between the relative incentive use (incentive index) and project performance will also be examined.
