The traditional method for industrial and commercial construction, known as the design-bid-build method, is preferred by many clients. This approach involves dividing the project into distinct phases—design, bidding, and building—each handled by specialized professionals. The design-bid-build method effectively addresses common construction industry challenges by clearly separating the phases, which is especially beneficial during the design phase. This separation allows for precise cost estimation and better financial planning while also ensuring higher quality control by finalizing designs before construction begins.
Moltus Building Group offers expert oversight throughout the entire design-bid-build process, ensuring a smooth transition between each phase. This oversight helps maintain a clear line of communication between all parties involved, minimizing the risk of misinterpretation and errors. Our proactive management extends into the bidding process, where we assist clients in obtaining fair, competitive bids, guaranteeing transparency and the best value. With extensive experience managing complex construction projects, Moltus implements proven strategies to ensure that the vision remains constant from design to completion.
The foundation of any successful project begins in its planning and design phase. Unlike the design-build method, design-bid-build relies solely on the owner coordinating design with applicable design teams. Here, you, the owner, will collaborate closely with an architect or engineer whose expertise will translate your vision, requirements, and expectations into an achievable plan.
Planning and design are crucial for setting the groundwork for the entire project, as they lay the groundwork to develop comprehensive design documents and specifications that will guide the subsequent phases.
Once the design documents are finalized, the next step is the bidding process. During this phase, Moltus Building Group assists you in soliciting detailed and competitive bids from various contractors.
Our role is to ensure that all bids are submitted fairly and transparently, providing you with a range of options to choose from based on cost, quality, and contractor expertise.
After reviewing all bids, the most suitable contractor is selected based on a combination of factors, including bid value, contractor’s track record, and proposed timelines.
With the contractor chosen, the construction phase begins. The selected contractor will be responsible for executing the project according to the design specifications provided in the bid documents.
Moltus continues to oversee the project, ensuring that the construction adheres to the planned design, timeline, and budget.
The final phase of the design-bid-build process is the completion and turnover of the project to you, the owner.
Moltus ensures a smooth transition by overseeing the final touches and confirming that all aspects of the project meet your expectations and the standards outlined in the initial design. If necessary, we promptly address any adjustments or final touches before formally closing the project.
Our Design-Bid-Build approach separates design, bidding, and construction into distinct phases, ensuring detailed oversight and transparent cost management. Contact us today to discover how we can streamline your construction project and make your vision a reality.
