“…Parrish and Tommelein ( 2009) explored the use of CBA to select a design for steel reinforcement in a beam-column joint, this study showed that the values of the team members can conflict, without However, including all perspectives in the CBA table enriches the decision-making process. Martinez et al (2016) used the CBA to choose the best formwork system, since traditionally they are selected based on the individual experience of the contractors. Karakhan et al (2016) used CBA to make safety design decisions.…”

On January 30 of 2020, The World Health Organization declared the pandemic crisis as the first public emergency with international importance. Because of this, many building projects were paralyzed since then and the building industry experienced changes that have brought the inclusion of new tools to achieve the objectives of the projects. The purpose of the present paper is to present the application of Choosing By Advantages (CBA) methodology to select the best alternative in the material removal system in the execution of basements in a project that was paralyzed by the health emergency COVID-19. CBA is a lean tool used to make decisions with clarity and transparency and in this case is used to consider the constraints of COVID-19 protocol to guide in decisions making. This methodology was applied to a case study for a building project in the basement construction phase that restarts its activities in the excavations. For that, an expert panel was formed to analyze and decide the best alternative solution. Finally, the selected alternative was implemented on-site, validating the methodology. It is concluded that CBA is an excellent tool to transparently document the selection process of the removal system. Additionally, this methodology allows including activities regarding the COVID-19 protocol, without affecting the project's productivity.

“… Advantage: A benefit, gain, improvement, or betterment. The use of CBA in the AEC industry has been framed, in its majority, in the design and construction decision making (Parrish & Tommelein, 2009) for example to select the formwork system (Martinez et al, 2016), the ceiling tile (Arroyo et al, 2013), the fall protection measures (Karakhan et al, 2016), the sustainable materials (Arroyo et al, 2016), among others. In the case of contractor selection, the MCDA is suggested to be a viable method (Cheng & Li, 2004) and especially for contractor selection, it has been used methods like weighting-rating-calculating (WRC), best value selection (BVS), and CBA (Schöttle & Arroyo, 2017).…”

“…Paz Arroyo et al (2013) describe that CBA Tabular method, for moderately complex decision, consist of seven steps: (1) identify alternatives, (2) define factor, (3) define must/want have criteria for each factor, (4) summarize the attributes of each alternative, (5) decide the advantages, (6) decide the importance of each advantage and (7) evaluate money data. In addition, the terminology used by CBA for the decision-making process must be understood before making any application (Martinez, Tommelein, & Alvear, 2016):…”

There are many methods of multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA), each one with properties and benefits. In the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) sector most of the time, the decision-making involve different interest of the stakeholders of the projects, must of the times applying methods with the focus on the result. This paper presents a case study of a new University's facility construction that compares the traditional decision-making approach used in the design-bid-build procurement method of AEC industry in Colombia with an MCDA approach. Choosing By Advantages (CBA) has been used to analyse the reasons that could help explain why the subcontractor of a project construction was not meeting the client's expectations during project execution. Results include a discussion of main differences between these decision methods, the main difference is that in traditional decision-making approach the main criterion was cost while in the CBA was value. Consequently, the method's results were different for the alternatives.
