Four ways to build with us

Pick the delivery method that fits your project. The same team, safety program and open-book reporting comes with each one.

Collaborative, open book

Progressive Design-Build

We join at the start and develop the design with you, pricing it openly as it evolves. A fixed price is agreed once the design is far enough along to price with confidence, and you decide when to move into construction.

Best whenYou want design-build speed without fixing a price before the scope is defined.

ContractCCDC 32

Single point of responsibility

Design-Build

We assemble and lead the design team from your concept and performance requirements. One contract covers design and construction, which shortens schedules and keeps cost and design in step.

Best whenYour requirements are clear and you want one team accountable for a fixed price.

ContractCCDC 14

Early involvement

Construction Management

You retain the architect and bring us in during design. We give real input on constructability, cost and schedule, then manage tendering and construction as your partner.

Best whenYou want cost certainty shaped during design and full transparency on trade pricing.

ContractCCDC 5A or 5B

Stipulated sum

General Contracting

Working from complete drawings and specifications, we run subcontractors, suppliers and site operations with full control of cost, schedule, quality, bonding, commissioning and turnover.

Best whenYour design is complete and you are tendering for a fixed price.
