Design / Build is a process in which the Owner contracts directly with one entity, the Design / Builder, that is to provide both design and construction services.

The Design / Build project delivery method offers several advantages to the Owner:

• Simplifies Owner's project management administration
• Maximizes opportunities for the Owner / E. P. Guidi / Architect Building Team to develop effective cost control and value engineering strategies
• Permits an accelerated construction schedule
• Promotes a cooperative team approach to insuring on-site construction quality control

When acting as a Design / Builder, E.P. Guidi enters into subcontractural agreements with professional architects and engineers to provide required design services. Architects and engineers are selected with the approval of the Owner and based upon their qualifications specific to the project.

E.P. Guidi manages the construction phase of the project through it's standard Preconstruction, Construction, Postconstruction and Project Management Control scopes of service.
