Design / Build Services
JG Morris Jr can take your project from initial concept to completion, providing you with creative and distinctive design build solutions, whether your project involves a renovation/addition or a full site selection and ground up construction. Design / Build is a very effective method of project delivery creating a more collaborative relationship between the owner, architect and builder, which can provide significant benefits to the owner.
JG Morris Jr will ensure that the project precisely fits your requirements and long term needs. Traditionally the owner selects one firm to provide both design and construction services. The design/ build process has been proven, by the Construction Industry Institute, to provide significant cost savings and schedule compression on building projects, when compared to more typical Design / Bid / Build or Construction Management type project delivery systems.
Under a design / build contract, JG Morris Jr takes complete responsibility to perform both the design and the construction. This approach reduces the time spent by the owner, and thereby reducing the overall project schedule. The owner deals with a design / builder, rather than with a separate architect, contractor and subcontractors.
