The beauty of Design-Build projects is their simplicity. One organization is responsible to design and construct the building. A single point of contact improves communication. It also eliminates adversarial roles between architect and contractor. This delivery type also speeds project delivery, as construction can start before the entire design is complete.
Constructing during design can accelerate project delivery by 25% over the design/bid/build method. This type of delivery fosters a true team environment. Members can figure out cost and schedule savings, improving overall value for the owner.
There are two major considerations when selecting a team for your design-build project. These are: their experience working together and their performance on similar projects.
