Design-Build

What is Design-Build? Design Build is a process where an owner executes a single contract with one entity to provide design and construction services. That entity, Bellisimo, works as a team to design and construct the project in the shortest possible timeframe at a reasonable price to provide a high-quality building that will serve users for decades to come. Design-Build is a fast-track method where construction is started before the design is completed allowing for a substantial cost savings compared to the traditional process of design-bid-build.

Advantages of Design Build:

  • Projects take significantly less time than traditional building practices
  • Savings
  • Single point responsibility
  • Team ingenuity
  • Flexibility
