Design-Build
Design-build is a delivery method where one firm is responsible for both the design and the construction of a commercial project. Instead of hiring an architect first and a contractor later, the owner works with a single team, so drawings, budget, and schedule move together from the start.
- One contract and one point of responsibility
- Design and construction priced as a single process
- Budget is set while the project is still being designed
- Faster path from concept to a finished, occupiable building
- Fewer gaps between what was drawn and what gets built
- Long-lead items can be bought before the drawings are complete
Design-Build in full → General Contracting
General contracting is the delivery method used when the design is already in place, and the owner needs one firm to build it. We take the drawings, buy out the trades, run the jobsite, and deliver the finished commercial building—responsible for cost, schedule, quality, and coordination through turnover.
- One contractor accountable for construction
- Bid, buyout, and management of all trade partners
- Schedule, budget, and change control in the field
- Quality, safety, and inspection coordination
- Procurement of materials and long-lead items
- Closeout, punch list, and building turnover
