If you have already selected an architect, Point Builders would be happy to team up with them as well. By teaming up with the architectural firm of your choice, and making Point Builders your primary contact, we are able to offer our clients a more streamlined construction process known as Design-Build. Benefits of the Design-Build method are as follows:
Time Savings. It's proven that the Design-Build process reduces project duration. Owners realize earlier utilization of their completed facility. The early integration of design and construction reduces the possibility of project delays.
Early Knowledge of Firm Price. The team will work together to decide the most cost-effective materials and methods before design is finalized, which enables them to provide more accurate costs and better schedules. The possibility of expensive surprises in the construction phase is reduced.
Increases Owner Satisfaction. Documented as a more 'user-friendly' process, Design-Build allows for a more satisfied owner.
Promotes Innovation and Value Management Ideas. The Design-Build team focuses on putting value into the project for the duration of the facility's useful life, not just reducing cost. Value engineering is most successful in the integrated Design-Build process.
Single Source Responsibility. The entire Design-Build process is enhanced by allowing the owner more control - due to fact that there is only one contract with one firm who is committed to the success of the project.
Cost Savings.
The Design-Build delivery method reduces total project costs and eliminates surprises.
Design-Build is a growing trend.
As you can see fromt he chart below, the use of the Design-Build delivery method has steadily grown and will continue to do so. The Design-Build delivery method is time tested. It was the method used to construct the Parthenon, the Pyramids of Egypt, the Theater of Dionysos and even the Brooklyn Bridge. Studies have proven the Design-Build method as the best delivery method to save time, money and energy. Point Builders has been specializing in the Design-Build process since 1988.
