Design-Build construction is another contracting method that is gaining popularity, as it can provide significant cost and time savings for owners. Whereas the traditional Design-Bid-Build process separates design and construction, Design-Build provides a single point of responsibility for an entire project.
At Elite Construction & Design, we not only accept the accountability required by the Design-Build process, we embrace it as a means to achieve 100% client satisfaction.
Design-Build contracting offers the following benefits:
- Single source accountability – Ensures that you always have a direct line to answers.
- Budget management – It’s important to have open communication throughout the design phase. Understanding cost implications related to design decisions while they’re happening will keep the project within your desired budget.
- Enhanced communication – Fluid communication between the design team and the build team helps to reveal and avoid potential challenges before they happen.
- Faster project completion times – Because the design and construction teams are working in tandem, some of the traditional bottlenecks are eliminated or drastically reduced (e.g., bid times, scheduling delays, and miscommunications).
- Better quality controls – Because the designer, engineer, and builder are all part of the same team, we share the same single focus: protecting your interest and meeting your goals. This is particularly valuable when it comes to ensuring material and construction quality.
