Benham has worked hard over the years to cultivate a uniquely unified culture, culminating in its aptly named DesignBuildSM group. The DesignBuildSM name is symbolically significant, bringing the words “design” and “build” together as one to represent the seamless union of architecture, engineering and construction professionals who clearly understand each other’s roles and work hand in hand toward a common purpose.
Our DesignBuild business unit maintains co-located, full-time architectural and engineering staff who do nothing but provide leadership for DesignBuild projects. Repetitively working in this environment builds personnel relationships, eliminates barriers of inefficient information exchange, and creates a common language between architectural, engineering, estimating, procurement, construction, and contracts personnel. The results in time efficiencies, development of second and third tier understanding of project goals and objectives, and firmly establishes the DesignBuild culture.
Our clients benefit from project challenges being identified and solved early in the project delivery process. Working diligently to achieve timely and economic projects, Benham DesignBuildSM delivers solutions, not just projects, to our clients.
