Really? I didn't know clients could be responsible for design.

Management Contracting is more about overseeing, not design.

I thought it was EPC! Can someone clarify?

It's definitely DBOO where the client takes charge of the design.

I'm leaning towards DBO, but I can't recall the specifics about how the client's responsibilities differ in that contract style.

I feel like EPC is more about the contractor handling everything, so it can't be that one.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think it was Management Contracting where the client has more control over design.

I think the answer might be DBOO, but I'm not entirely sure if the client is fully responsible for the design in that one.

I've got a good feeling about this one. The client being responsible for design sounds like the EPC contract type to me.

Okay, let me see... I know there are different contract types, and the key here is figuring out which one puts the design responsibility on the client. I'll have to review my notes on that.

I'm not sure, but DBOO also sounds like the client might be responsible.

I'm going with C) DBO. Doesn't that stand for 'Design, Build, and Operate'? Sounds like the client is in charge of the design.
