Design Build

 
 
 
 
  • Newer Approach
 
  • Owner Has Contract with Contractor to Provide Design and Construction
 
  • Architect is Consultant to Contractor and Prepares Design and Construction Documents which Describe Work
 
  • Contractor Builds the Project
   
 

Advantages to Owner

 
  • Truly One Point of Responsibility for Design and Construction
   
 

Disadvantages to Owner

 
  • Architect is Sub of Contractor and May Not Hold Interest of Owner to Highest Level
 
  • Lack of Competition?
