The decision on a project delivery system should boil down to who takes
risk for the design.

In the traditional design-bid-build project delivery system, an owner receives the construction documents from his architect, and in turn issues them to the selected general contractor. In the process, the owner assumes the risk since he is warranting the accuracy and completeness of these documents. This single step leads to over 90% of all construction change orders and litigation.

Conversely, in the design-build project delivery system it is the design-builder who warrants to the owner not only the accuracy and completeness of the construction documents but also the finished building. This eliminates the owner’s risk of contractor initiated change orders and litigation. Design-build projects historically have shorter project durations and far fewer legal claims.

Finfrock takes the design-build delivery system a step further by putting every aspect of the Design-Manufacture-Construct process under one roof to provide a single source of responsibility. Our unique design-manufacture-construct project delivery system places one entity in charge of delivering the complete structure and greatly tipping the balance of risk and reward in favor of the owner. Your risk is further reduced by Finfrock’s superior financial strength. Because we are the owner of a large manufacturing facility, we have assets that far exceed most architects and general contractors, and our bonding capacity is several hundred million dollars.
