Design-Build: Expedite and Save

On a daily basis, our clients expect us to deliver significant time and financial savings. One construction approach that cuts costs and reduces the delivery schedule is the design-build delivery method. The design-build method economizes and streamlines a project by overlapping the design and construction phases with the contractor assuming the majority of the risk. It is popular for turning seemingly unworkable projects into legitimate opportunities. For instance, as design-builder, Leopardo revived a police station project that had been stalled for five years and saved the municipal client $200,000. If the project doesn’t budget out as anticipated, the contractor operating as the design-builder can redesign the facility in a way that creates value in multiple ways and gives the owner a turnkey price to still do the whole deal on budget.
