DESIGN-BUILD SERVICES
“Design-Build” is a project delivery method that enables you to contract with a single entity (J.D. Goodrum) to complete both the design and construction phases of your project. When a project calls for an accelerated schedule, budget restrictions, or a single point of contact, design build is often the best solution. J.D. Goodrum has extensive experience contracting directly with design professionals to provide this delivery process to our clients.
With a single point of contact facilitated through J.D. Goodrum, we’re able to more readily control costs and schedules, including offering a Guaranteed Maximum Price.
These simple but fundamental differences save time and money by transforming the relationship between client, designers and builders into an alliance which fosters collaboration and teamwork.
Design – Build Benefits:

Negotiated Design/Build projects still include competitive bidding for the project costs, facilitated by the J.D. Goodrum through obtaining multiple sub-contractor bids. This gives the client the benefit of having a GC intimately involved in the project with the client’s interests at heart while will providing the opportunity to competitively bid the work to ensure the best price is realized. - Quality: Creates a seamless combination of design and construction practicality, serving the needs of the project and the client.
