SEATTLE, WA (March 19, 2015) — Colin Winters, Senior Director, Client Services in Project Delivery at Momentum, a national plan-design-build firm, has successfully completed the requirements for the nationally recognized Designated Design-Build Professional™ certification. TheDesign-Build Institute of America (DBIA™) awarded designated status to Winters upon his successful completion of coursework and formal examination in all aspects of design-build project delivery. By completing these requirements, candidates earn the right to display “DBIA” after their names, identifying them to design-build end-users and the industry at large as professionals experienced in this form of project delivery.
“We congratulate Colin, who has been leading our construction management and delivery team for the past nine years,” commented Bob Saunders, Executive Vice President of Momentum on Winters’ achievement. “His dedication to delivering safe, sound, sustainable and high-performance facilities for our clients makes Colin an invaluable member of Momentum’s executive leadership team.”
DBIA certification demonstrates commitment to “design-build done right”. These design and construction professionals have mastered the best practices associated with the entire design-build process—from project procurement through post-award. Both A/E/C firms and public agencies train personnel from a variety of disciplines and departments in the best-practices developed by DBIA.
Three to six years substantial design-build work experience is an additional prerequisite for Designated Design-Build Professional™ certification. Maintaining the credential requires a minimum of 24 hours of continuing education credit every two years.
