Office Design and Build FAQs
What does a commercial design and build company do?
A design and build company is your trusted partner in transforming spaces into remarkable environments. With an open-minded approach, we explore the vast possibilities of commercial design balanced with functionality, to align with your ambitions. Our experts listen to your business objectives, potential, and aspirations, translating them into tangible, actionable plans and both design then build your dream workspace. This includes architectural design planning, adhering to building and safety regulations, construction and project managing the process from start to finish.
What are the advantages of office design and build procurement?
By choosing design and build procurement, you gain access to a single point of responsibility, streamlining communication and decision-making. This results in enhanced efficiency, as design and construction phases seamlessly merge under one team. Additionally, design and build procurement promotes collaboration and innovation, allowing for greater flexibility and adaptability throughout the project. With a holistic perspective, potential conflicts are mitigated early on, leading to both savings on costs and time.
What is the difference between design and build and traditional contract?
The difference between office design and build and traditional contract lies in the approach and level of responsibility. With design and build, you have a single entity responsible for both the design and construction aspects of the project. This streamlined approach ensures better coordination, faster decision-making, and a seamless integration of design and construction expertise. In contrast, traditional contracts separate the design and construction phases, involving multiple entities and contracts. This can lead to potential challenges in communication, coordination, and accountability. Design and build offers a more collaborative and efficient process, with the design and construction team working together from the start, resulting in enhanced cost and time management, reduced risks, and a cohesive outcome.
