Design-build
One agreement for design and construction when speed matters more than competitive bidding.
What it involves
One agreement
You sign one contract for design and construction, and there is one party responsible for both.
Design and price together
The people pricing the building sit with the people drawing it, so the budget is tested as the design develops rather than at the end.
Overlapping work
Early packages such as demolition, foundations or long-lead equipment can start while later drawings are being finished.
Who designs
To confirm: which design work Noble's Crest does in-house and which with partner architects and engineers.
Questions about design-build
When does design-build suit a project?
When the opening date matters most, when the scope is clear enough to describe in a brief, or when you want one party answerable for the result.
When does it not?
When you already have an architect and complete drawings, or when your organization must bid the construction competitively. General contracting fits those cases.
