Top Ten Reasons Why Design and Build Simply Works Better
The Steamboat Project was Design Build
- Comprehensive budget – prepared by experienced number crunchers who are intimate with every phase of the project from planning through design to construction and interior design.
- Beginning to end supervision – One entity supervises the project from inception to completion creating continuity and project expertise.
- Seamless multi-disciplined integration – All the necessary disciplines (architecture, planning, engineering, construction, interior design) are housed under the same roof and answer to the same authority creating simplified workflow.
- Single entity accountability – If something ain’t right, one entity is responsible for correcting the supervision and has the authority to do it.
- Breadth of knowledge – The team is experienced in all phases of a homebuilding project, not just a particular discipline. The result is a synergistic knowledge base.
- Parallel track design and construction – During design, construction budget, timeframe, and logistical issues are examined while during construction, design changes can be readily implemented.
- Design guidance and input – Builder sits at the design table. Who better to provide relevant design guidance than someone experienced in homebuilding.
- Budgetary input during design – A builder intimate with the design process can provide cost management advice during the design phase.
- Proven team member/players – The team members know each other well having worked on many projects together
- Accessibility – The client always has access to the entire team through any single team member.
