Unlike the “traditional" contracting approach, where an owner
commissions an architect or engineer to prepare specifications and
separately selects a contractor, design-build is a process whereby
one entity performs both design and construction. This approach
ensures a single source of responsibility for every aspect of the
construction process.
In the tradition of master builders of the past – who practiced
as architects, engineers and constructors fused into a single
cohesive unit, ACG North America, Inc. brings together the key disciplines within a
single organization. Under the design-build approach, we assume the
risks that traditionally are born by the project owner, including
managing and coordinating the design team, mitigating errors and
omissions as well as controlling costs, schedule and delays – all
which typically save the owner considerable time and money.
ACG North America, Inc. delivers comprehensive, fast track
design-build solutions. Working in partnership with our clients, ACG North America, Inc.
establishes the project cost early and then designs and builds
within the budget. Our design-build philosophy combined with an
extensive base of experience, resources and leading edge technology,
allow us to offer the full range of facilities planning, design,
construction and contract interior fit-out, all at single point of
responsibility.
