Design & Build Services

Benefits of a well-designed and managed design-build process:

Singular Responsibility With one entity controlling both design and construction there is a single point of responsibility for quality, cost and schedule adherence.

Quality Greater responsibility implies a motivation for high quality and performance.

Cost Savings Design and construction personnel, working and communicating as a team, evaluate alternative materials and methods efficiently and accurately.

Time Savings Overlapping design and constrution while eliminating bidding periods and redesign time results in significantly reduced design/construction time.

Potential for Reduced Administrative Burden Under a streamlined procurement process, the potential exists for design-build to reduce the owner's administration burden.

Early Knowledge of First Costs Because the entity responsible for design is simultaneously estimating construction costs and can accurately conceptualize the completed project at an early stage, guaranteed construction costs are determined earlier.

Risk Management Project performance aspects of cost, schedule and quality can clearly be defined and appropriately balanced.

Balanced Award Criteria Leading to Best Value By evaluating for design quality, functional efficiency, team experience and other factors, owners can select the proposal reflecting the greatest value, not simply the lowest first cost.
