WHY DESIGN BUILD
Four advantages over
the traditional route.
An integrated approach, increasingly popular in both commercial and residential construction, that offers numerous benefits over traditional methods.
01
Simpler management
Design and construction under one contract, reducing the workload and coordination effort that comes with juggling multiple entities.
02
Better quality control
Architectural and construction expertise together from inception to completion, so high standards hold the whole way through.
03
Faster timelines
Designers and contractors collaborating from the outset means faster approvals and shorter implementation.
04
Tighter cost control
Early cost estimation and value engineering, so the budget is understood before the drawings are finished.
Seamless experience
One person, start to finish.
The cornerstone of our design-build service is a single point of contact. It streamlines communication and decision-making, offering a seamless experience from concept to completion.
Clients find real comfort in having one dedicated professional managing every aspect of the project clarity and consistency in every exchange.
One contract covering design and construction
Fewer conflicts between separate entities
Coordinated subcontractors, no crossed wires
Strategic budget management
Know the number early.
Our early cost estimation gives you detailed insight during the initial stages, so you can make informed decisions about scope, materials and everything that follows.
Value engineering and cost savings analysis then identify cost-effective alternatives without compromising quality often leading to substantial savings.
Early cost estimation
Projections during the initial stages, so budget planning starts with real figures.
Value engineering
Cost-effective alternatives identified without giving up quality.
Design meets execution
Expertise and precision,
on the same team.
Effective collaboration between designers and contractors from the outset streamlines the workflow and minimises the risk of delays and overruns.
Faster approvals
Designers and contractors working together from day one means design approvals come quicker and implementation windows shrink.
Fewer overruns
A streamlined workflow reduces the risk of delays, which is how we meet deadlines consistently rather than occasionally.
Combined expertise
Architectural and construction knowledge in the same room from inception to completion, holding standards throughout.
Coordinated subs
Effective coordination with subcontractors avoids the miscommunication and delays that quietly wreck a schedule.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Before you call.
The questions owners and property managers ask us most. Anything not covered here, Seth or Andy will answer on the phone.
What exactly is design build?
Design and construction delivered under a single contract, rather than hiring an architect and then bidding the drawings to a contractor. You get one point of contact, one agreement and one team accountable for the result.
How is this different from hiring an architect first?
Design build brings the design and construction process together under one team, helping improve communication, coordination and cost control from the beginning.
Do you handle permits and code review?
Yes. We navigate permitting and compliance as part of the contract, and we have permitted across Omaha, Bellevue, Papillion and Council Bluffs each of which reviews differently.
When do I get a cost estimate?
During the initial stages. Early cost estimation gives you real figures to plan against, and value engineering then identifies cost-effective alternatives without compromising quality.
Can you work in an occupied building?
Yes most of our commercial work is phased around tenants and business hours so the property keeps operating while we build.
Is the estimate free?
Always. We walk the property, document the existing conditions and come back with a line-item scope you can read and budget from, at no cost.
Still deciding?
Tell us what the space has to do when it is finished we’ll tell you whether design build is the right route.
