DESIGN-BUILD
Our primary delivery method, Design-Build offers a streamlined approach compared to traditional methods where the owner contracts separately with a designer and a contractor. Design-Build involves a single contract with one entity, the design-builder. This results in increased collaboration, faster project delivery, cost efficiency, reduced owner risk and enhanced communication.



DESIGN-BID-BUILD
Design-Bid-Build is the most traditional delivery method, in which the owner contracts separately with a design professional to prepare construction documents. The Contractor then creates a proposal based on those specifications and is not involved during the design process. The biggest drawback to this process is the lack of collaboration between the contractor, the owner and the design professional.
CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT
Using the Construction Manager (CM) delivery method, the owner hires a construction manager early in the design phase to oversee the project from design to close-out, with the CM acting as both a consultant and a general contractor.



PRE-PROJECT CONSULTATION
Project consultation is essential for the success of your building project.
Our team offers comprehensive support in areas such as:
-
Feasibility studies
-
Cost estimating
-
Scheduling
-
Regulatory compliance
We are committed to helping you and your stakeholders navigate the construction process efficiently, ensuring successful outcomes.
