Design and Build Construction Projects

The design-build method

Our design-build service refers to a project delivery method where one contracting entity (usually referred to as the design-build contractor) is responsible for design and construction services. This collaboration between designers and construction planners streamlines the process and makes things easier for the project owner by giving them one point of contact. By overlapping the design and construction planning phases, design-build projects establish costs much sooner in the process and often reduce the delivery schedule.
