Contractors Design and Build (Project Managers)

• Contractors Design and Build (Project Managers)

The design and build concept of construction contracts consists of a contractor and architect under the construction firm’s management being responsible for the project from its inception through the design process, during construction, and until it is completed. The construction firm may have its own design capability, own a subsidiary design firm, or hire an independent architect and engineering firm. One important feature of this coverage is professional liability for the construction firm that has both design and build functions.
