ENJOYING THE PROGRESSIVE DESIGN-BUILD JOURNEY

OUR APPROACH

The overall project approach that Garco+Integrus will use for the Craig Road Elementary School project is focused on the formation of a committed, long-term, and strategic partnership with Cheney School District and the community it serves. an engaging and enjoyable process. Our team delivers exceptional design-build solutions while fostering a collaborative working environment. Our team brings a positive and energetic approach, creating a dynamic atmosphere where innovation thrives.

We can cut this if we need to... it will need to be updated for this project.

Let's design a "team Charter" on an A3 size... 

Team Charter

CLARITY - COMMUNICATION - COLLABORATION - GUIDANCE

This foundational teaming agreement document outlines the project's purpose, vision, scope, goals, roles and responsibilities.  It serves as the cornerstone for the Garco+Integrus team to ensure total alignment and unified approach.

Target Value Design

DESIGNING TO THE ESTIMATE... NOT ESTIMATING THE DESIGN

Using this highly interactive and collaborative process ensures the project stays within the desired budget by aligning the design and construction costs from the very beginning.  Cost certainty, value maximization, waste reduction, and improved efficiency are outcomes of this process.

Choosing By Advantages

TRANSPARENCY - ALIGNMENT - RISK MITIGATION

Thoroughly evaluating the advantages of different options using this open and transparent process leads to more informed group-based decision making and value-driven choices.  By involving all stakeholders in this clear decision-making process, all perspectives and expertise is considered leads to better risk identification and goal and value alignment.

& Cost Modeling

INNOVATION - EFFICIENCY - ENHANCED DISCUSSION

This advantageous collision of design and conceptual estimation is the foundation of progressive design-build innovation.  It is where projects are truly formed, the budget is wholly agreed upon, and the "One Team" concept is clearly defined.  By "co-locating" all design team members and partners with the construction team members and trade partners in the same "big room", the project cost model can be updated in real-time creating the opportunity for healthy debate and discussion on design decisions while being mindful of the project's finite budget and constructability.

Pull Planning

COORDINATION - OPTIMIZATION - ACCURACY

Beginning at the end goal of a successfully delivered, on-time project, this interactive process places all stakeholders in the same room to work backwards identifying all necessary critical path steps allowing for mitigation of potential scheduling clashes before they ever occur.  This ensures the project schedule is realistic, achievable, and accurate.
