Why design-build?
Think of design-build as a more thoughtful, holistic approach to creating your new center. Rather than hiring and managing a patchwork of different service providers, you get a wide range of services under one roof-building design, construction management, and much more. The result is greater efficiency, better coordination, and more thorough integration of your project's various parts.

One project manager, one phone number, one email address-one person who can answer all your questions. Plus, all costs, schedules, and scopes of work are considered together as a whole from the start.
At the beginning of our process, we provide you with one comprehensive schedule linking design development to permitting to construction to facility move-in. Equipment delivery schedules and operational requirements are considered at the earliest possible date. We manage your entire project, not just our own work.
As the only firm managing the project, we can't point fingers or pass the buck. We do the job right or we explain why we can't. No excuses.
You see what we pay. It's as simple as that. We've found that the key to successful outcomes is open books, open planning, and shared knowledge.
Have we mentioned that we've done this for 30 years? That means we know all the right questions to ask at the beginning of your project. We know what equipment we'll use and the critical trades that will be involved. And what we don't know, we find out well before breaking ground, incorporating every last detail into our planning.
Our learning curve isn't about health care facilities. It's about you and your practice.
With so many experienced design and construction professionals on our team, we have an enviably deep bench. We'll match the right pros to your project based on its objectives, location, and more.
We think it's our job to manage the project, not yours. We keep you informed but take care of the details, freeing you to do what you do best.
As your firm, we're on your side, guarding your interests. With most of the required expertise and services coming from in-house or from our trusted partners, we get to avoid the time-honored contractor's game of playing one side against the other if things don't go quite right.
