With the design-build contract, A+ executes a turnkey project that meets the client’s requirements for a set price. A+ assembles the professionals required to develop the project’s plans and specifications, which are submitted to the client upon completion. The contractor then takes charge of the project from preconstruction to delivery on site. By overseeing the entire project, A+ improves its management, the performance of the professionals involved and the communication between the parties.
This type of contract is suited to clients that want to transfer all the risks to the contractor, which is then responsible for the design, construction, cost and performance of the project. It minimizes the risks, reduces the costs and allows for better control over the budget and schedule.
