Design- Build
With design-build delivery, the Design-Builder warrants to the owner single source accountability for meeting all design specifications, as well as project construction, including delivery dates and budgets. Costly and time consuming redesigns, with their associated change orders, are eliminated.
Design-Bid-Spec
With traditional project delivery, the owner hires an Architect/Designer under a design contract for approximately 8-10% of total contract cost. The Architect/Designer design is then submitted to a General Contractor under a separate contract, which is typically low-bid. This process creates two separate trails of accountability and makes the owner, rather than the designer, responsible to the General Contractor for ensuring appropriate specification and design.

"Design-build is a method of project delivery in which one entity - the design-build team - works under a single contract with the project owner to provide design and construction services. One entity, one contract, one unified flow of work from initial concept through completion. Design-build is also known as design/construct and single-source responsibility. Across the country and around the world, design-build successfully delivers office buildings, schools, stadiums, transportation and water infrastructure projects with superior results" (Design-Build Institute of America).
