KBE is experienced in multiple delivery methods and contractual arrangements, whether design-build, construction management, or general contracting. This gives us a unique perspective of understanding the project process and expectations from everyone’s point of view – owner, architect/engineer, contractor, and trade contractor.

An overview of project delivery methods

Construction Manager:  (column one of text)
As a Construction Manager at Risk, we greatly value the opportunity to work closely with the Design Team and the Owner from the very start of the project, as the project is being designed.. Here we are able to provide in-depth constructability reviews, expert value management recommendations, and thorough cost estimates at every step of the design process. Potential field changes are addressed while the design is still on paper, minimizing future cost and schedule impacts. As the project moves into Construction, our field management team is already deeply familiar with the goals and expectations for the project. This in turn facilitates a smoother project process and greatly reduces the risk of costly field changes.

As a Design-Builder, KBE focuses on bringing together experts from every discipline – Architecture, Engineering, and Construction – to develop and fine-tune a comprehensive design and construction program for our clients. The close partnership between Design Team and Constructor ensures a high-quality project with minimal potential for field changes during construction, saving time and dollars. Projects can be quickly brought to fruition through this close interaction.
