Design-build—occasionally thwarted by confusing laws, team members unfamiliar with the concept, or owners who want to use the delivery method only to reduce their risk—is still the best way to deliver projects faster and with lower costs, the founding members of the Design-Build Institute of America said during DBIA’s 25th annual conference.
“It’s better faster cheaper,” said Don Warren of McCrory Construction, one of four of the DBIA’s five founding members who spoke during a general session at the conference in New Orleans.
