The design-build process is a simplified approach to construction involving one unified team to work together on the erecting of a building, from start to finish. With ultimate collaboration between architects, builders, engineers, estimators, and the building owner, incredible things can happen.
The benefits of the design-build method far outweigh those of any of the alternatives. Because the entire project is completed under one entity, design-builds essentially skip a step in the process of building construction.
In traditional methods, the owner must manage two separate contracts between the project designer and the contractor, as well as allow extra time for the contractors to bid on the project and establish estimates and costs.
At Design Build Canada, we have a complete in-house team, allowing architects to coordinate with the other team members. In this way, the design-build method effectively eliminates unforeseen or unnecessary costs and streamlines the process for owners and design-builders alike.
Regardless of the method of construction used, safety should always be paramount on a job site. At Design Build Canada, we ensure all of our employees receive regular and relevant safety training, and our policies and procedures are up-to-date with current accident trends, fatalities, and causation factors.
At Design Build Canada, safety is a priority. We follow all safety procedures and ensure we are up-to-date with the latest in safety legislature.
We employ a safety codes officer who remains informed and aware of any safety breaches and works to enforce safety protocol.
We don’t only ensure the safety of our employees, we also do what is necessary to make each job site safe for the general public.
