Why Design-Build?

Design-Build construction is easy to navigate, delivers a higher return on investment, and lowers your risk. Your industrial Design-Build project will finish right on budget and faster than one that’s conventionally contracted.

The Importance of Design-Build

Rapid Project Delivery

Bidding and award time is greatly reduced or eliminated altogether, giving time back to the project and speeding up your product to market. Design and construction happen simultaneously, with our experts navigating the release of long lead time items. Any design issues are also immediately addressed.

Single Source Responsibility

One single point of contact manages and takes responsibility for the entire project, removing coordinating, handling, and scheduling all the details from your plate.

Innovative Solutions

Design-Build projects feature more innovation and better constructability. Our team will collaborate, find new ways to add value to your project, and share the risk. We align our goals with yours.

Early, Dependable Pricing

There's one bid proposal upfront for design and construction, and that’s the price you pay. There are no hidden charges or scope gaps.
