Design/Build brings to the owner the value of alternative designs to choose from, known guaranteed cost early in the design phase, and qualified teams of professionals experienced in Design/Build construction. Combining lower cost of design, lower overall cost of construction and single-source responsibility, Design/Build offers greater value for construction. Research by the Project Delivery Institute confirms that Design/Build is faster, less costly and results in higher owner satisfaction. On average, this research shows that projects delivered under Design/Build took 33.5% less time to deliver and had a unit cost 6.1% less than similar projects delivered under Design/Bid/Build.
According to a study of more than 350 projects published by the Project Delivery Institute and performed by the Construction Industry Institute, the key to success on Design/Build projects is (1) experience in the design and construction of similar facilities and (2) experience in the design/build delivery system. In relationship to these critical success factors, the Donley’s team offers unmatched experience.
