In this week's podcast, we talk with Andrew Pettenon, Director/Owner of RMB Design.  Andrew has a unique background in the construction industry starting off within on-site roles working for Mirvac and Icon then being (arguably) the first Design Manager in the Melbourne commercial building industry.  

We spoke about the issues and problems relating to contracts - specifically Design & Construct contracts, getting KPI's and deliverables right, compliance and the role of a Design Manager and how it has evolved of the last 15 years.

Amongst other things, in this podcast we discuss:

• Design Management - the development of the role
• Procurement issues that will remain as we move towards the back end of Covid
• Design & Construct contracts
• Driving factors from a Developers point of view
• Considerations for developers looking to get into the market
