Benefits Of Design-Build

 
Design-build is a system of contracting under which one entity performs both design and construction.

In a "traditional" contracting approach a client commissions an architect or engineer to prepare drawings and specifications and separately selects a construction contractor or construction manager either by negotiation or competitive bidding.

A design-build team is jointly involved in producing a product that meets a client's needs rather than merely acting as professional advisors.  Collaboration of designers and builders is the foundation of design-build.

Benefits of design-build project delivery include:

• Single point responsibility
• Early knowledge of cost
• Time savings
• Cost savings

The belief that delivering facilities through a single source design-build process provides clients with superior results has been the foundation of the company since it began in 1965.  Haskell is widely considered to be the leader in the fast growing design-build industry

Processes and tools developed by the company have become industry standards.  Haskell was one of the founding members of the Design-Build Institute of America in 1993 and has developed and encouraged enactment of model design-build legislation nationally.
