Burkey
will
team
with
design
professionals
to
provide
design-build
services.
We
will
work
directly
for
the
owner
and
participate
in
design
development,
budgeting,
scheduling,
contract
document
preparation,
and
scope
development.
The
design
team
can
either
be
contracted
through
us
or
directly
by
the
owner.
Either
way,
we
will
partner
together
to
ensure
a
working
unified
team.
Design-Build
is a
method
of
project
delivery
in
which
one
entity
assumes
total
responsibility
for
both
the
design
and
construction
of
the
project.
This
approach
offers
many
advantages
over
the
traditional
Design/Bid/Build
approach
by
using
separate
companies
for
the
design
and
construction.
Some
of
the
other
advantages
of
Design-Build
include:
-
Owner can save significant amounts of time and money.
-
Project can be designed and built quicker and in a more cost effective manner.
-
Budgets, procurement of materials and scheduling can begin before the final design work and documents are completed.
-
Owners can have more input into the design and construction phase of the project.
-
Timely informed construction decisions.
-
Subcontractors can become a member of the team early in the construction process
