Design Build
With both design and construction in the hands of Martin & Cobey, there is a single point of responsibility for quality, cost, and schedule adherence. Martin & Cobey is motivated to deliver a successful project by fulfilling multiple parallel objectives, including aesthetic and functional quality, budget, and schedule for timely completion. With design/build, the owner is able to focus on scope/needs and timely decision making, rather than on coordination between designer and builder. Design and construction personnel, working and communicating as a team, evaluate alternative materials and methods efficiently and accurately. Value engineering and constructability are utilized continuously and more effectively when the designers and contractors work as a team during the entire design process. In return, design and project cost are lowered because of better communication with the owner and design/build team throughout the entire process from start to finish which in turn creates less room
