Design and Construct FAQs
What exactly is a "Design and Construct" service for offices
Design and Construct (DandC) is a holistic project delivery method where a single entity, like Marshall Group Services, is responsible for both the design and construction phases of your office project. This offers a seamless, integrated approach with a single point of accountability from initial concept to final handover.
What are the main advantages of choosing Design and Construct over traditional methods?
The key advantages include a single point of contact, seamless integration between design and construction teams (reducing potential conflicts), faster project timelines due to overlapping phases, greater cost efficiency through value engineering, and enhanced risk mitigation, leading to more predictable outcomes.
Does Design and Construct cost more than separating design and build?
While the initial overall quote might seem higher than a design-only fee, DandC often leads to overall cost savings. This is because the contractor's input during design can identify efficiencies, prevent costly redesigns, and streamline the construction process, reducing overall project time and potential budget blowouts.
How does Marshall Group Services ensure quality in a Design & Construct project?
Our integrated approach fosters continuous collaboration between design and construction teams. We implement rigorous quality assurance protocols, meticulously select materials, and our dedicated construction oversight team ensures every aspect adheres to the highest standards, backed by our over 25 years of industry experience.
How are statutory approvals handled in a D&C project in Sydney?
Marshall Group Services manages the entire approval process, from preparing and submitting necessary documentation (Complying Development Certificates, Development Applications, Construction Certificates, Occupation Certificates) to liaising with local councils, private certifiers, and landlord management. Our expertise ensures compliance with all NSW regulations, including the DBP Act.
Can a D&C approach accommodate unique or highly customised office designs?
Absolutely. Our D&C model is ideal for highly customised projects. Our design team works closely with you from the outset to understand your unique vision and translate it into a feasible and innovative design that perfectly reflects your brand and operational needs.
How long does a D&C office project typically take from start to finish in Sydney?
The timeline varies based on complexity and size, but a D&C approach can often be faster than traditional methods due to overlapping phases. A typical D&C project in Sydney could range from 10 to 30 weeks, depending on the scope. We provide detailed project plans during our initial consultation.
What kind of communication can I expect during a D&C project?
You can expect transparent and consistent communication. We maintain a "One Company Contact Policy," with regular updates, scheduled site meetings, and prompt responses to your queries, ensuring you are always informed and involved in every stage of your project.
What happens if there are unexpected challenges or changes during the D&C process?
One of the strengths of D&C is its flexibility. Because the design and construction teams are integrated, they can quickly and collaboratively address unforeseen challenges or incorporate client-requested changes with minimal disruption, often finding efficient solutions in real-time.
What makes Marshall Group Services a preferred partner for Office Design & Construct in Sydney?
Our over 25 years of experience, expertise in both design and construction, commitment to a seamless integrated process, strict adherence to NSW building regulations (including the DBP Act), and our client-focused approach set us apart in delivering high-quality, on-time, and on-budget projects that exceed expectations.
