DESIGN AND BUILD

The design-build approach is a modern-day project delivery system that effectively collaborates the designers and contractors into one entity. This method overcomes the classic adversarial relationship between the design and contractor. RAE has developed a strong and effective design-build business model, in which the contribution of designers come from their knowledge and experience in design and construction.

Working with clients who share our passion for innovation and exceptional quality in any type of project - be that commercial or residential - through our Design and Build service, we will oversee and deliver on all facets of the construction process.

We offer the entire build solution - from concept to delivery of the completed build. The design, documentation and construction of your build.

We manage the project through our comprehensive process management which covers quality, finance, health and safety, risk, communication and regular reporting.

As we design and implement your project-based strategies, we'll partner with you to ensure your project is specific to your needs making sure you are getting everything you are after with no additional costs in reworking plans and specifications.

To strike the right balance among risk, design, cost and opportunity, our experienced team can perform rigorous feasibility and design studies showing you specific development requirements and local council regulations to help you assess the most appropriate form, timing and positioning for your project, taking into account current market conditions, local regulations and costings.

Our understanding of construction methods, permitting, scheduling, and budgeting allows us to design projects, while reducing cost and schedules. This cradle to grave understanding of a project development has allowed our staff to develop phased schedules for large scale projects in which we effectively perform design and construction operations in parallel. These schedule compressions allows for faster delivery times and a reduction in overall project cost.

What you can expect using our Design & Build process:

Our knowledge and experience allow us to professionally project manage any type of building assignment and prepare project budgets to ensure that every build is completed on time to the client's satisfaction.

Design & Build Benefits

Through direct collaboration between the designer, the architect and the builder, we bring creativity and technical expertise to our projects, to the same extent, while the detailed planning since the concept phase, ensure the economic efficiency of our projects. We offer quality and high standards both in design and in execution, as well as attention to detail and particular approach to each client, based on their aspirations and expectations.

We offer efficiency in terms of time and budget. Given the experience of the builder, the project's final phase will be safeguarded from any technical problems that may usually arise during execution. This will avoid a subsequent redesign, which could increase development time. Through careful planning from the beginning by setting all providers, constructive solutions and the finishing from the early project plannng phase, our team ensures compliance with the budget set by the client.
