An integrated project delivery contract is a contract between the owner, architect, and contractor. All three will share the risk. The contractor is involved early in the design and the architect is involved during construction.
The basic elements that should be addressed in an agreement between an owner and architect include (1) the owner's objectives for the project, (2) the architect's scope of services and a description of the drawings or other deliverables the architect is to furnish; (3) the fees to be paid for providing those services

Advantages of Design-Build ContractsReducing design time. Simplifying construction drawings. Leaving value engineering alternatives open for discussion and analysis throughout the project. Shortening the construction calendar.
Architects are in charge of design and project planning, and they are also responsible for the visual appearance of buildings and structures.
Design-build is a project delivery method in which the owner contracts directly with one entity to provide both the design and construction of the project. It is important to recognize that a design-builder assumes responsibility and liability for both the design services and construction work.
In the Design-Bid-Build delivery, the owner contracts separately with the design firm that produces the construction documents, and the builder that physically builds the building. This is the traditional method, and is based on the sequential process of design, construction documents, bidding, then construction.
Architecture Contracts are the joint agreements between development partners and sponsors on the deliverables, quality, and fitness-for-purpose of an architecture. Successful implementation of these agreements will be delivered through effective architecture governance (see Architecture Governance).
Design-build contracts work by providing an owner with just one contract to design and build a project. Rather than hiring a separate architect and contractor, a design-build firm provides both professionals who work together on the project from the beginning.
