Design-Build Advisory
Structuring the deal so the design serves the delivery.
Overview
What this service actually delivers.
Design-Build and alliance contracts collapse the traditional gap between designer and constructor — but only when the contract, governance, and target-cost mechanics are set up correctly. We advise owners through selection, target-cost setting, gainshare/painshare, and the operating agreement.
Typical value
Design-Build clients report 18% fewer change orders after award compared with traditional D-B-B benchmarks.
