The Design/Build approach can provide engineering and
construction under a single contract. This results in a single point of
responsibility, maximum control by the Owner and immediate responsiveness by the
contractor. "Finger pointing" is eliminated because G. C. Stanley, Inc. is
solely responsible for all aspects of the electrical system.
Time
The total project duration is significantly reduced, giving the owner use of the
facility sooner. While design is being developed, purchasing, scheduling and
actual installation can begin. This short-cuts the lengthy design and bid
period.
Value Engineering
This may be based on knowledge
of constructability issues, the newest methods that have been successfully
employed, or knowledge of specific trends.
The electrical contractor is often in the best position to advise the most
cost-effective design or product specification.
Enjoy savings from purchasing factory
direct such as eliminating the middleman, increased value and customer service
and all this without sacrificing quality.
Early Knowledge of Firm Price
The Owner benefits from knowing budget pricing as the design development is
occurring. Then, as the design criterion solidifies, G. C. Stanley, Inc. can
provide a firm price. Several contracting methods are available that create a
partnership, between the Owner and G. C. Stanley, Inc. committed to keeping the
project under the established budget.
Reduced Administrative Burden
The Owner is not required to invest resources preparing R. F. P.'s, conducting the
extensive evaluations, or coordinating and arbitrating between separate design
and construction contracts Rather, the Owner can focus on timely decision
making.
