Texas Senate Bill No. 1, passed by the 74th Legislature, and successor legislation provided governmental entities such as cities, counties and river authorities with the ability to choose among seven different project delivery systems for facility construction. The bill was passed in order to permit the governmental entities to choose a delivery system which provided the best value. Governmental entities must regularly explore the benefits as well as the weaknesses of each project delivery system with the intention of determining the best overall method for that entity. The objective of this research was to determine which delivery methods Texas public universities prefer based on a variety of variables and to analyze the trends over time of the selection of project delivery systems. Schools analyzed, in this research, are within the Texas A&M University System, the University of Texas System, the Texas State University System, the Midwestern State University System, and the University of Houston System. Analysis from the data collected revealed Construction Management at Risk has recently become the most frequently utilized project delivery system by Texas Public universities. 收起
