The continual need for building in developing economies and countries such as Jordan increases the obstacles and problems faced by Project Management Units in completing projects on time, with quality assurance, and at lower prices. However, as more and more new types of project management approaches such as (Design-Bid DB) are introduced, the binding conditions of contracts are growing tougher in order to reduce risks during project execution. In this paper, the researcher tries to provide a fair comparison between (Design-Bid-Build DBB) and (Design-Build DB) approaches which are already used in the construction project in Jordan and offering a good vision for both owners and contractors equally
