Design & Construct

Protection for your projects, finances and relationships with your clients.

Design and Construct (D&C) is a project delivery system in the construction industry in which design and construction services are contracted by a single company known as the design and build contractor. Contractors are increasingly taking on a design liability, either by employing in-house professionals or by assuming liability when subcontracting the design element.

The vast majority of all building projects in the United Kingdom operate on this one-stop shop basis for the client.
