Design-Build

Until recently, design-build had been considered an “alternative” form of project delivery in the USA. But now design-build is the most commonly used construction project delivery method in the nation.

Shockey has been recommending and using it for decades. Our company is currently ranked among the nation’s 100 largest design-build construction firms on BD+C’s Giant’s 400 Report. Our seasoned team has designed and built a wide variety of these projects across most building sectors.

With a design-build model, Shockey works directly with your designer (under a single contract, as a unified team) from inception through construction, to ensure that project costs stay within your budget. When correctly executed, design-build fosters an environment of collaboration, teamwork, and efficiency — and often results in significant cost savings and faster speed-to-market.

As projects become more complex, many owners and developers prefer the simplicity of a design-build approach. Shockey recommends an early alliance between project owner and experienced design-build partner. Even if your project is just an idea, it’s not too early to get started.
