Freeze the brief
A clear scope protects budget, timeline, and design quality. Define rooms, finish level, inclusions, exclusions, and decision owners.
Confirm the budget structure
Separate design fee, statutory costs, construction estimate, interior estimate, taxes, contingency, and optional upgrades.
Track milestones
Design-build projects work best with milestone approvals for drawings, materials, procurement, execution, snagging, and handover.
