Reduce costs and risks.
1. Deliver Projects Faster
Designing and building are done concurrently, allowing the construction team to provide feedback to the architects regarding costs and schedule. Architects, in turn, provide the construction team with progress drawings, quicker changes and other information that informs the build. This exchange of information makes it easier for the entire team to quickly understand potential changes and to make adjustments earlier in the process.
2. Save on Costs
Effective team synergy among the owner, designer and builder often contributes to decreased costs or additional scope. A design build delivery method, coupled with transparent, open book contracting terms, mean you understand exactly where your dollars are going every step of the way. By engaging the construction manager early in the process and working collaboratively as a team, owners often gain significant cost savings over a hard bid approach.
3. Reduce Risk to Owners
Because Design-Build results in a single contract with the construction manager, you reduce your risk. The construction manager contracts with the architect and trade partners, taking on the risk and managing the collaborative process. The transfer of risk, teamwork and open communication make this a popular approach for many owners in Dallas-Fort Worth.
