Design build is an approach to the construction process that allows the owner to maximize design flexibility, offers a single-source responsibility for the project, and condenses the design and construction schedules for a fast-track delivery. ML Barnard, Inc.’s design build services incorporate maximum flexibility and responsiveness without compromising quality.
Consider the following keys of ML Barnard, Inc.’s success:
Flexibility
A design/build approach begins with a careful analysis of the client’s end-use requirements, which are integrated into design. ML Barnard, Inc. incorporates value-engineering practices – we assess each step of the construction process for compatibility with budget, schedule, building functionality, and form.
Single-source Responsibility
Single-source responsibility is the key to a successful design build project because it achieves cost savings, speed of delivery, efficiency in design, and customer satisfaction. Construction projects are complex processes involving multiple consultants; ML Barnard, Inc. streamlines communication, helping to minimize confusion and encumbrances.
Fast-track Delivery
A design build solution requires extensive front-end planning and coordination. The strength of ML Barnard Inc.’s program lies in our ability to coordinate and administer a multitude of parallel budgetary, pre-construction, and construction processes simultaneously. Typically design/build solutions create an overlap between the design and construction phases.
Value Engineering
Value engineering is a creative process that creates value in processes, materials, and operating systems without adding cost. ML Barnard, Inc.’s experience helps you make the most of your budget. We analyze the building design and costs then suggest options that add value and quality. Our team of professionals draws on their collective experience to anticipate needs and create innovative solutions. We practice the art and science of construction daily – our clients harness our expertise so that they can focus on running their core business.
