It is a method to deliver a project in which the design and construction services are contracted by a single entity known as the design–builder or design–build ...
[1] [2] [3] It was part of the CEF sent to France during World War I. The Canadian Permanent Machine Gun Brigade was organized in the Permanent Force on 16 April 1917.

Design–build–finance–operate-maintain (DBFOM) [10] [11] also referred to as Design–build–finance–maintain-operate (DBFMO) [12] [13] is a project delivery method very similar to BOOT except that there is no actual ownership transfer. Moreover, the contractor assumes the risk of financing until the end of the contract period.
