Join us for Episode 109 as we delve into the ongoing debate surrounding design-build, a comprehensive approach where a single team manages both the design and construction phases of a project. This all-encompassing strategy, embodied by experts such as Mimi and Hill and Brinton Brosius, Inc., offers unique benefits and challenges
worth exploring.
Mimi and Hill, led by the dynamic duo of Hillary Kaplan and MiriamSilver Verga, epitomize the design-build ethos by crafting authentic, personalized spaces through a blend of fashion and interior design. Their skilled team carefully curates every aspect, from vintage pieces to custom artisanal creations, ensuring homes mirror their owners' individuality.
Brinton Brosius, Inc., another distinguished design-build firm, has built a sterling reputation for delivering exceptional craftsmanship and service throughout North and Central New Jersey. Their comprehensive team, comprising Project Managers, a Director of Operations, carpenters, and administrative staff, excels in renovations,
restorations, and new construction, focusing on quality and timely completion.
On the other side, we have Scott Hobbs, a renowned custom builder who champions the traditional project delivery approach. In this method, clients have the autonomy to select their designer and contractor separately, fostering a dynamic interplay between the two parties.
In this comprehensive episode, we'll scrutinize the pros and cons of design-build versus traditional project delivery. The design-build model offers streamlined communication, simplified project management, and potential cost savings, yet some may argue it limits competitive bidding. Conversely, traditional project delivery provides greater flexibility in selecting designers and contractors, but it may lead to adversarial relationships and increased complexity in managing separate contracts.
Our expert panel will unravel the intricacies of these approaches, equipping you with the knowledge needed to embark on your next project with confidence. Tune in to discover the right path for your unique construction endeavor!
