These real questions are answered by me and US Master Builders after receiving them from readers of my e-book Benardrick McKinney Youth Jersey , "Residential Development Made Easy."
Question 1.
'Design Build,' sometimes called 'Design Construct' is a development process where the contractor (the builder) engages all the consultants for the project and submits a price for the design and construction of the project to the developer meeting the developer's requirements as far as aesthetics and space requirements.
The builder, if awarded the project, goes ahead and builds the project without the developer having to deal with any consultant. This generally saves the developer the hassle of going through various tender exercises. Can you elaborate further on this issue please?
Master Builders & Developer's Reply:
Essentially what you have said above is correct, however as with most things in life Kevin Johnson Youth Jersey , there is a "BUT" involved.
"But" - not all builders can provide 'Design Build services.
Just because a builder can build a house, does not mean he can design one or supervise the design of one. Remember, in the pecking order of seniority in the industry, the designer architect usually 'tells' the builderwhat to do. 'Design Build reverses these roles.
Builders are usually practical people - they get things done - and like to complain about the fancy ideas of designers. However it is the fancy ideas that distinguish your house for the one next door and makes it work better and sell better.
Now lets go up a few rungs on the builder expertise ladder to the Master Builders level. Well as with all human endeavors, there are different levels of expertise.
