What is design-build?

Design-build is an integrated project delivery model that brings design, budgeting, and construction together from the outset. At BSP, this process may be led in-house or executed in close collaboration with external architects and designers.

Unlike the classic model, where design and construction operate independently, design-build encourages early coordination among all key parties. This integrated structure reduces friction, clarifies decision-making, and enables proactive management of budgets and schedules throughout a project's lifecycle.

Same goal, different timelines…

…and very different outcomes.
