11. PPEA The original reason for doing this as a PPEA project is that the prior design, bid, build process (DBB) had failed to deliver a suitable program of requirements and subsequent design in a timely way. Arbitrage on the bonds were pending and could have been subject to financial penalties. Assuming that DBB and Design Build (DB) could deliver the project in equivalent time frames and at equivalent prices,  the financial penalties would swing this in favor of DB under the PPEA.  More to the point, if the City had gone DBB, you would have only been able to start the design process and encumber funds for that purpose only.  Construction funds would not be encumbered until that portion was actually put to bid and a contract authorized by the Governing Body. The DB process via the PPEA allows for faster delivery since the construction can be phased and the PPEA is the fastest way to get this delivery method into place.  There are cost savings through the PPEA phased approach due to reduced inflation impacts.
