Most construction disputes are not caused by bad work. They are caused by a gap between what the drawings said, what was priced, and what the owner believed they were buying. Design-build closes that gap by putting design and construction under one contract, with one party accountable for both.
We also act as project manager or owner's representative on projects we are not building — reviewing bids, auditing pay applications, verifying that what is billed matches what is installed, and keeping the schedule honest. It is the cheapest insurance on any construction budget.
