What is the Design-Build Process?

Design-Build provides owners with a single point of contact for the design and construction phases of a project. One entity holds single-source responsibility and contractual risk management for every aspect of a build — from estimation, assessments and pre-construction to architecture, schematics, engineering, subcontracting, construction and post-construction.

 

This entity, the Design-Builder / Stanley & Wencl, manages all contracts with companies, such as subcontractors, equipment vendors and materials providers.

“I've been working with Jay Feider at Stanley & Wencl for a good 20 years. As an architect, one thing that makes my job a lot easier is Jay's education - he graduated from the Dunwoody Institute - architecture program. He has a good understanding of "design" and many times will meet with the client, then give me a floor plan that he has prepared, that solves all of the client's issues. Jay has a good group of subcontractors that he can rely upon as he puts a bid together. My church was planning for a new addition. I brought Jay in as one of the three proposed general contractors. He was the only one of the three to give us a complete bid and on time! By the way, Wendy Literski is the best secretary/office manager ever!"

“From project onset, the Stanley & Wencl team worked hard to communicate in an efficient and effective manner. They handled the coordination with the architect, interior designer as well as other subcontractors in a seamless manner. In fact, their management efforts were so proficient, I never felt bothered in the design or construction process, which allowed me to continue to do my job!"
