Design-Build (D-B) is an owner driven project delivery mechanism used to reduce the project delivery time by overlapping the design phase and construction phase of a project. This does not shorten the time it takes to draw the drawings, acquire the building permits or build the building. Rather, it focuses on interweaving the design, permit, and construction schedules in order to capture the time lost in a traditional Bid-Build environment. In this way, Design-Build represents a risk management strategy that places a premium on delivering the project sooner versus delivering it cheaper.
Design and Build: typically one organisation (usually a contractor) is responsible for both design and construction of the works
