The Problem with Traditional Delivery Methods
The traditional design-bid-build process keeps the contractor out of the loop until the
bidding process, when the project is already pretty much designed by the
architect. This means if the construction bids are over budget, the
project may have to undergo significant redesign, costing the client money and time. A Better Way
Our integrated delivery avoids this
problem by bringing the contractor (and the rest of the design team)
onto the project early so the design can be carefully worked out to
meet the budget. This method offers the following advantages: Cost-effective design due to the Architect's access to construction and pricing information during the design phases Delivery of the project with reduced likelihood of cost increases or overruns Familiarizes the entire design and construction team with the project early on, so there are less surprises during construction
