WHAT IS A DESIGN-BUILD FIRM?

The design-build method has become an increasingly popular and effective way of completing construction projects. Design-build firms operate under one contract with the project owner to complete both the design and build steps of a construction project. A single contract for both design and construction is what defines design-build methodology. This single contract streamlines the process while saving time and money for both the owner and the design-build team.

Learn how the design-build process works and why working with design-build companies is beneficial.

If you looked at a design-build flow chart, you’d see the process is straightforward. The phases of the process overlap so the project delivers significantly faster than a project done under other construction management styles, like general contracting. All the members of the team collaborate, which makes every aspect of the process more efficient.
