Design Build Construction Services

Design build construction is an alternative to traditional construction project delivery. Instead of the owner managing separate contracts for the architect and general contractor, design build contractors handle the design, architecture, and execution of a construction project, saving owners time and hassle by not having to coordinate with separate contractors.

FEI can partner with you for the design build of commercial and residential projects in the Philadelphia Tri-State area. We leverage our holistic expertise to handle every aspect of the project, facilitating collaborative problem solving between stakeholders and completing projects on time, on budget, and with a higher degree of quality compared to traditional design-bid-build delivery.

Our Design Build Process

Pre-Construction Planning

From the very outset of program development, our team is instrumental. We collaborate with you to understand your vision and goals, then translate those into a comprehensive plan for the renovation or new construction. Our program development includes a schedule and budget that is value-engineered to ensure cost-efficiency.

Vendor Selection and Management

We have a deep bench of trusted engineer, architecture, and subcontractor partners that can handle every aspect of the project. We’ll coordinate schedules and ensure clear and frequent communication between all stakeholders.

Material Procurement

We are always looking for ways to reduce cost and add value to your project. We challenge ourselves to get the best prices for the best-quality materials, and are experts at negotiating with vendors to achieve that goal.

Construction Management

Once construction is underway, we ensure that all timelines and budgets are strictly adhered to, overseeing every aspect of the project and reallocating resources as needed.
