DESIGN-BUILD SERVICES

The Axis Construction Design-build delivery method focuses on combining the design, permit, and construction schedules in order to streamline the traditional design-bid-build environment. Axis will strive to bring together design and construction professionals in a collaborative environment to complete the individual tasks of creating construction documents (working drawings and specifications), acquiring building and other permits, or actually constructing the building at the same time.

Benefits of Axis Construction Design-Build

• Enhanced communication
  The owner has greater access to the "team" working on project development as the project is being developed.



• Accountability
  Rather than a parcelized level of responsibility of the classic design-bid-build, design-build provides an integrated solution for the owner or client. This moves projects away from the "finger-pointing" that is often commonplace in contemporary construction projects, and allows the owner to look to one entity with any questions or concerns.



• Single Source
  The owner has just one entity to deal with. Design revisions, project feedback, budgeting, permitting, construction issues, change orders, and billing can all be routed through the design-build firm.



• Value-based project feedback
  Typically, in order for a contractor to bid on a project, very specific details relating to the methods and materials must be given to avoid any ambiguity and to make an "apples to apples" comparison of bids. In a design-build context, the owner, the owner's other consultants, and the design-builder can work together to determine what methods and materials will maximize the owner's value.
