Early collaboration in the construction process creates more efficiencies and fewer changes.

Preconstruction problem-solving and expert innovation ensure a seamless building process.

Collaboration between Design and Construction teams from the start fosters better understanding of the Owner's needs and goals.

Organizational Structure

The Design-Build Contractual Relationship

    How Design-Build Works:
  • Owner hires a Contractor or Design-Build team for the project.
  • The Design-Build team is fully responsible to the Owner for the delivery of the project.
  • Typically at some point (as early as possible) in the process a GMP is established.
  • Communication for the project flows through the Contractor or Design-Build team to the Owner.
