The Design Build Advantage

When a designer and builder work as a team on a construction project rather than as separate entities, the concept is known as Design-Build. The designer and builder could work together as a joint venture or one could be the sub-contractor of the other. While there are potential pitfalls to this arrangement, this is often not the case. In fact, this arrangement is advantageous and allows for single-point accountability and efficiency. An owner does not have to deal with multifarious agencies where the onus of responsibility often overlaps and becomes difficult to pinpoint. A significant design-build advantage is that building project goals are well understood and straightforward. Design-build is fast growing because of the plethora of its advantages. It is now accepted in the industry as a high performance construction project delivery system and a preferred alternative to the conventional design-bid-build philosophy. The relatively new concept of Architect-led
design-build is the popular model in today’s construction industry.

Platinum Builders, a twenty-year old San Jose construction company, has adopted the design-build model with remarkable success. If you have a construction project in the offing, regardless of size, you should consider the design-build advantage by talking to Platinum Builders.
