How We Deliver

Design-Build
Single-Source

60%

of our project volume

Design-Build

One Team. One Contract. One Accountable Partner.

Design-Build integrates architecture/engineering and construction under a single entity — eliminating the adversarial dynamic between design and construction that drives cost overruns and claims.

Our design-build projects average 17% faster schedule and 8% below-GMP final cost compared to traditional delivery on equivalent scope.

  • Single point of accountability
  • Early cost and schedule certainty
  • Concurrent design and construction
  • Reduced owner risk
  • Collaborative problem-solving
General Contracting
Traditional

250+

GC projects completed

General Contracting

Execution Excellence at Scale.

When the design is complete and the owner wants competitive pricing through open bid, we bring deep trade relationships, self-perform capacity, and proven field management to deliver.

Our GC division has completed $1.2B in hard-bid work over the past decade without a single contested claim.

  • Competitive pricing through bid
  • Deep local subcontractor network
  • In-house self-perform (concrete, framing)
  • Rigorous quality control
  • Dispute-free track record
Construction Management
Owner Advocacy

$900M+

CM volume under management

Construction Management

Your Interests. Our Focus.

As your CM, we act as an extension of your team — managing design professionals, trade contractors, and procurement on your behalf with full fiduciary alignment.

CM at-Risk transfers schedule and budget risk to us while keeping the owner in control of key design and trade partner selections.

  • Owner-aligned fee structure
  • Full cost transparency (open-book)
  • Early trade package development
  • Value engineering without compromise
  • Flexible contractor selection
Pre-Construction Services

Pre-Construction Services

Invest in Certainty Before You Break Ground.

Pre-construction is where we earn the most trust. We'll challenge assumptions, surface constructability risks, and stress-test the budget before a shovel hits the ground.

On average, our pre-construction teams identify $1.2M in savings or risk mitigation per $20M of project value.

  • Concept-to-schematic budgeting
  • Constructability reviews
  • Phasing & logistics planning
  • Early procurement strategy
  • Market pricing intelligence

How We Deliver, Every Time

We've refined this delivery engine across hundreds of projects and billions in value. It's not a promise — it's a repeatable system backed by data, technology, and deeply experienced people.

Meet the Team
01

Discovery & Feasibility

We invest time upfront to understand your program, site constraints, budget envelope, and schedule objectives — before any design fees hit.

02

Pre-Construction & Design

Our design and construction teams work in parallel, continuously validating cost and constructability at every design milestone.

03

Trade Buyout & Procurement

Leveraged relationships and competitive buyout strategies consistently produce 5–12% below-estimate results in our procurement phase.

04

Construction & Self-Perform

In-house concrete, framing, and MEP coordination reduces coordination risk and gives us real-time schedule control.

05

Closeout & Commissioning

Zero-defect punch, systems commissioning, and structured warranty support — because "done" should mean done.
