The bundling of
design and construction services is a capability
that Aecon Industrial has cultivated over many years
in the industrial construction marketplace. We have
experience in delivering this contracting model
across several industries including power, steel,
automotive and petrochemical, all under many contract
variations.
Today's complex projects require a higher level
of performance to control the amount of risk involved
in the build phase. Ensuring a successful outcome
is essential. For many of our clients, the major
projects they undertake represent a considerable
investment in time, resources and management oversight
- it's the kind of project done only once every
few years. Aecon understands these concerns and,
through our own large project experiences, has
developed a contractor-led approach to design-build
work.
A contractor-led design-build team has some significant
advantages in project execution. We begin with
the end in mind, refusing to allow design stage
delays, the impact of which are magnified in the
field. Also, we inject real constructability advice
into the design from the earliest stages, ensuring
that what is on the drawings can be built in the
most efficient manner possible.
