Points to consider

See the joint OGC/SBS publication  Smaller Supplier - Better Value?

The functional performance of public facilities will have the greatest impact on the lifetime value of that investment. Total integration of design and construction delivers better value for money and can increase innovation as well as better facilities, where specialist suppliers contribute to design development from the outset. The same principle applies to IT systems.
