Introduction
Everyone desires a house of dreams with all the necessities of life to sustain the standards
of living. A house is an important benchmark in an individual's life to have a respectable position
in the society and among the peers with complete support to the family. House Renovation is one
of the procedures to restore and refurbish the physical structures in better manner. This is
refereed to as sustainable modified changes in order to bring creativity and uniqueness by
accessing to the structural stability via optimum possibilities. It is the combination of smaller
stages which leads to attain the desired outcomes. Herein, a renovation procedure mainly
depends on the project delivery system to reach the potential in terms of cost optimisation and
minimum of waste generation (Nicholas and Steyn, 2017). In recent times, the renovation
projects in Australia is becoming quite popular by maintaining the aesthetics and culture of an
individual's taste. There is a great deal to buy properties and invest a substantial amount,
however the Australians are also ready to convert their house into dream homes through
renovation and interior designing.
In regard to this, the project delivery system is the platform which supports the owner in
achieving the expected outcomes in regard to the renovation works of a house. This model is
useful for designing, implementing and supervising the entire operational activities while
renovating a home. This also involves the financial planning, services related to the maintenance
and following the activities under a legal framework to give authenticity. It is thereby
demonstrated that there are two variables that has been used to maintain the accountability.
These are as follows: owner's extent in direct financing for completing the project and next is
extent of integration of various service providers (Mesa, Molenaar and Alarcón, 2016). It has
been noted that the owner has the largest control and autonomy in the project delivery system.
Each step in this delivery system is investigated which result in cost minimialisation with proper
allocation of resources available to bring the concrete changes.
Additionally, this project is based on renovating a three BHK (bedroom-hall-kitchen)
house by implementation of a desired project delivery system to establish a systematic order in
fulfilling the client's requirements. Moreover, it will include a literature review on the typical
delivery models and other related conceptual features to understand the significance of
renovations. It would pave the path to better assessment of available resources including
manpower, raw materials, financial aids etc. This will further put insights on the methodology

part to be developed for attaining the delivery systems. Moreover, it will also highlight about the
type of payment systems used in completion of this project. Its utility is imperative in completion
of a project delivery system. There is description about the roles and responsibilities of the team
that is going to complete this renovating task for a 3 BHK house. Lastly, this will be
emphasizing on the need of quality and delivery of services to manage the sustainability factor in
effective manner.
Project Specification and Background
The background is in simpler terms where a three BHK house is undergoing to be
renovated by understanding all the key aspects of this process. In regard to the above, it is mainly
due to onset of indoor pollution levels due to unnecessary purchasing of materialistic objects.
People in Australian continent are moving towards the new and flexible novel approaches to
maintain and safeguard the sustainable development which has become the need of the hour via
adopting to design build delivery system, minimalism aspect, tiny house concepts, etc. (Kibert,
2016) This also highlighted the usage of chemicals and other harmful substances that is over
burdening the planet in an unsustainable mode. Thus, renovating a 3 BHK house is the project;'s
aim to be fulfilled by using a project delivery system to complete it in systematic order with time
and cost effectiveness.
The project delivery system to be used is the Build Design which has become the most
adopted system for residential designing projects or renovating a specific area. It is among one of
the cost effective methods which assist the owners and the builders to cost cutting without
spending any substantial amount and receiving the same amount of results. The entire project
focuses on bringing changes in an environmental friendly manner to promote sustainability by
using the organic materials and minimal use of furniture and other commodities. Additionally,
the focus is to promote the build design delivery system. It has been examined that this system
has been in constant demand by all walks of people because of its varied range of benefits and
collaborative nature of working practices.
