Comprehensive construction delivery. Built with integrity.
Kent Design Build provides construction services and delivery tailored to each project's unique goals.
At Kent Design Build, we lead with insight, build with excellence, and serve with integrity by delivering comprehensive construction services that guide your vision from concept to completion. Through collaborative delivery methods and transparent partnerships, we simplify complex projects and create lasting value for our clients and communities.
We help you solve for the most common project challenges:
Budget Uncertainty
Schedule Delays
Stakeholder Misalignment
Lack of Early Collaboration and Accountability
Increased Project Risks and Inefficiencies
Our Project Delivery Methods
Design + Build (DB)
A fully integrated approach that unites design and construction under one contract. This streamlined method enhances collaboration, accelerates schedules, and provides early cost clarity, delivering efficiency and accountability from start to finish.
Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR)
A collaborative delivery model where we provide preconstruction guidance and commit to delivering the project within a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP). This approach balances early contractor involvement with controlled financial risk.
General Contracting / Design-Bid-Build (DBB)
A traditional delivery method where design and construction are contracted separately. We provide competitive bidding, disciplined project management, and quality execution aligned with the completed design.
Design-Assist
A partnership-driven approach where our team collaborates with the design team during development to provide constructability insight, cost guidance, and scheduling input, improving efficiency before construction begins.
Construction Manager as Advisor (CMa)
Serving as the Owner's representative, we provide independent oversight, coordination, and management without holding trade contracts, ensuring transparency, advocacy, and protection of the Owner's interests.
Preconstruction Services
Early-stage planning establishes budget accuracy, scheduling strategy, risk evaluation, value analysis, and constructability review, which sets a strong foundation for project success.
Program Management
Strategic oversight across multiple projects or phases, ensuring consistency, efficiency, cost control, and alignment with long-term organizational goals.
Benefits of Our Approach
The right delivery method creates clarity, reduces risk, and strengthens results. At Kent Design Build, our comprehensive services and integrated approach provide advantages at every stage of your project.
Schedule Efficiency
Strategic planning and early contractor involvement keep projects moving forward with fewer delays.
Early Cost Confidence
Preconstruction planning and early collaboration provide accurate budgeting and proactive cost management, minimizing surprises.
Owner-Focused Accountability
Through CMAR, CMa, and Program Management, we provide transparency and advocacy that protect owner interests.
Reduced Risk
Clear roles, structured oversight, and experienced leadership help control schedule, scope, and financial exposure.
Stronger Collaboration
Integrated delivery methods like Design + Build and Design-Assist align teams early, improving communication and decision-making.
