|a Sanitation infrastructure in Indonesia is conventionally procured using the traditional method. Due to sequential nature of this method, it can result in a lengthy design and construction period. Design and Build (DB) procurement method can be considered as one of the solutions since this method has been claimed as a method that offers: improved buildability, faster completion of time, and greater certainty in price. The Directorate of Environmental Sanitation Development, Ministry Of Public Work (MOPW) is the body that is responsible on sanitation infrastructure. Thus, the aim of this study is to determine the potential of Design and Build method procurement implementation in Directorate of Environmental Sanitation Development by identifying the potential barriers to implementing design and build procurement method and the critical success factors (CSFs) with strong predictive powers of its implementation particularly in sanitation infrastructure. The data collected for this study is generated from structured interviews that have been conducted among the experts who have sufficient knowledge and substantial experience of project delivery system in Indonesia. The study found that among others, the factors include "lack of experience", "lack of regulation on contractual arrangement", "lack of detailed regulation on tendering system", "lack of detailed guideline on project characteristics" and "a small number of experienced and skilled of other stakeholders in DB" as potential barriers that can impede the implementation of DB system. The experts also identified "comprehensive contract form and documentation", "well defined project scope definition, "client?s input in the project", "contractor?s competence", "experienced project team leader", "and working relationship among project team members" as CSFs that need to be paid more attention on to in order to enhance the successfulness of the Design and Build project. Moreover, those factors are needed to be given more attention to enhance the potential of DB procurement method implementation in the Directorate of Environmental Sanitation Development, MOPW.
