Description
Design build is a project delivery method used in the construction field. It takes the whole scope of the project and puts it on one single entity called the design builder. After introducing what design build is to the reader and they understand; the study will explain what it takes to complete the design build process within the company. After much of the information is included, conclusions will be drawn on whether or not the design build process can be done by smaller companies and where the most issues arise. To find information on the topic, various types of reference materials will be used including: books, journals, online sites, as well as an interview with a construction firm that uses design build and completes less than 30 million dollars’ worth of work annually. By looking at these different types of reference materials and interview, the study should be able to effectively draw conclusions to answer the question.
