Design Build Process
The Design-Build approach in construction offers owners a streamlined process by providing a singular point of contact for both the design and construction stages of a project. When entrusting your Design-Build project to MHB Projects, we assume the role of your exclusive liaison, taking on full responsibility and contractual obligations for every facet of the build—from initial site survey and architectural design to engineering, cost estimation, subcontracting, construction management, and post-construction services. These efficiencies translate into a favorable return on investment for owners, freeing up their time to concentrate on core business activities!
Traditional Project Delivery
Under traditional construction methods, owners typically manage two distinct contracts—one for architectural design and another for construction. This arrangement often places the owner in the middle, tasked with overseeing communication and resolving disputes between the designer and the contractor. This dynamic can lead to finger-pointing between the designer and contractor regarding issues like cost overruns and project delays.
In contrast, Design-Build integrates all project components, allowing architects to collaborate closely with other team members rather than working independently. This cohesive approach enhances communication and minimizes gaps in coordination, ultimately reucing unforeseen costs and speeding up project timelines.
For corporations or franchises with in-house design services, we offer a modified approach. We engage our architect teams to convert in-house design plans into comprehensive construction drawings, incorporating all necessary building code information and engineering specifications.
Why Design Build?
Design-Build presents distinct benefits and advantages to owners that cannot be matched by other construction methods.
Time Is Money
Design-Build consistently offers owners more of their most precious resource: time. This delivery approach expedites project completion by streamlining the project team, workflow, and communication channels. Let MHB Projects expedite your project timeline, allowing you to swiftly convert your investment into a profitable venture and optimize your opportunity costs.
