What is design build construction?
As a premier commercial design-build firm, BUILD IT offers a streamlined project delivery model where we assume full responsibility under a single contract. Instead of you hiring designers and builders separately, we assemble a high-performing team—curating the right architects, interior designers, and engineers for your specific project needs. We manage these professionals alongside our construction specialists to ensure your master vision is realized flawlessly, from Toronto to Calgary and beyond.
Design-build vs. traditional delivery
Why choose a unified design-build partner over a traditional multi contractor model?
Traditional (Design-Bid-Build): This siloed approach often leads to fragmented communication and competing interests. Owners are often forced to mediate between architects and contractors who may not be aligned on budget or structural feasibility.
The BUILD IT Advantage: Our model bridges the gap. In the past, separate bidding was meant to save money, but it often resulted in costly delays and change orders. BUILD IT’s design-build model has become the industry favorite in Ontario and Alberta because it ensures everyone from the architect to the trades on site is working toward the same goal.
BUILD IT simplifies the entire process.
Our approach brings the entire project ecosystem under one roof. By leveraging deep industry relationships throughout Ontario and Alberta, we source and hire the ideal external consultants including structural engineers and interior designers to match the unique requirements of your build. Unified Vision: We oversee design evolution alongside construction planning, resulting in fewer moving parts.
Real Time Problem Solving: Because we lead the collaboration between designers and builders from day one, we address structural challenges or budget adjustments in real time. Accountability: We provide a singular point of accountability from the initial concept to the final coat of paint.
Saving yourself time, money, and mistakes with design build commercial contractor.
Choosing BUILD IT as your commercial design-build contractor provides benefits that go far beyond convenience. Significant Cost Savings: we identify efficiencies long before construction begins, ensuring the design remains grounded in your budget.
Faster Timelines: By managing consultants and construction teams simultaneously, we accelerate the path to project completion.
Risk Mitigation: Under traditional models, a mistake in a drawing causes a domino effect of delays. At BUILD IT, we take full ownership. We proactively manage our hand-picked team of architects and engineers to address challenges at the root, ensuring your project stays on-time and on budget.
