When looking for someone to lead your commercial construction project, it’s important to consider who you’re trusting in each step of the process. Contractors play an influential role in bringing your vision for your building to life, and the more people involved in different stages of construction, the less control you actually have over the end result. Because of this, many people have turned to contractors who offer design-build services to their clients. If you’re exploring the best options for your commercial construction project, we’ll break down the benefits of design-build services and help you determine what type of contractor is best for you.
Design-build is a delivery model in which the customer works with a single contractor who designs and implements the construction for the entirety of the project. Unlike conventional project models, where one contractor designs the project and multiple parties may handle the construction, the design-build model completes all of these services under one roof. In design-build projects, you retain maximum control over your project, because you know exactly who is completing every step along the way.
Working with a design-build contractor has multiple benefits for commercial projects. If you are in the process of starting a new project, here are a few reasons you may want to consider a contractor who offers design-build services.
Contractors who offer design-build services allow your project to move smoothly from beginning to end with a streamlined workflow and project process. Rather than having to work with a separate designer, a general contractor and potentially multiple sub-contractors, you can have one point of contact who completes all project tasks. This makes it easy to stay up to date on project details, communicate and ask questions, and ensure that all the information provided and agreed upon during your initial meetings gets carried out through the entire process.
With the entire construction and design groups on the same team, a lot of common worksite friction is eliminated. All moving parts are coordinated by the same company, so your subcontractors don’t have to compete with each other or wait around for different companies to finish their part of the project. Plus, since your point of contact works personally with each person involved, they will be able to deliver a clear and transparent line of communication and expectations during the duration of your project. All teams are working towards the same goal and timeline, and great customer service is generally the result of those efforts.
With design-build services, the contractor not only attends your initial meetings but also manages all facets of the construction process from beginning to end. This means that your budget, timelines, and concerns are always front-of-mind. Rather than juggling your vision between many parties, your expectations are clearly set and respected. Plus, your job can be managed more efficiently when you reduce the number of companies working on—and potentially disputing over–the same project. . This all adds up to a process that saves time and money over the life of a project.
