                   With Design-Build, we are able to get on 
                    ground sooner, build faster and deliver before schedule more 
                    often than comparable Design-Bid-Build deliveries. The initial 
                    time saving is in elimination of the bid phase between design 
                    and construction. We are able to save further by overlapping 
                    design and construction activities. Materials, equipment procurement 
                    and construction on site can be initiated well before preparation 
                    of all specific details documents. The integrated process 
                    approach encourages time saving value engineering and parallel 
                    construction activities that do not get into each other's 
                    way. Most importantly, due to the better control that we exert 
                    over the various component agencies working on the project, 
                    any delays or non-performance can be addressed quickly and 
                    effectively without getting into contractual issues and time 
                    wasting procedures, making Design-Build the system of choice 
                    for 'Fast-Track' deliveries.
