Design-Build

In Design-Build, the design and construction tasks are integrated via an interdisciplinary team including architecture, engineering and construction specialists like HVAC, plumbing and electrical. Using this integrated design process, we deliver savings in time and construction cost control for the Owner.

Benefits of Design-Build

Singular Responsibility: With both design and construction in the hands of a single entity, there is a single point of responsibility for quality, cost, and schedule adherence. The design-builder is motivated to deliver a successful project by fulfilling multiple parallel objectives, including aesthetic and functional quality, budget, and schedule for timely completion. With design-build, the owner is able to focus on scope/needs definition and timely decision making, rather than on coordination between designer and builder.

Cost Savings: Design and construction personnel, working and communicating as a team, evaluate alternative materials and methods efficiently and accurately. Value engineering and constructability are utilized continuously and more effectively when the designers and contractors work as a team during the entire design process.

Time Savings: Because design and construction are overlapped, and because bidding periods and redesign are eliminated, total design and construction time can be significantly reduced.
