Alternative Project Delivery
Forging extraordinary partnerships through collaborative delivery
Alternative project delivery (APD) means carrying out projects using custom methods developed to streamline design and construction, reduce risks, and provide opportunities for innovation. We go beyond traditional engineering and procurement with
- Design-build (DB)
- Progressive design build (PDB)
- Integrated project delivery (IPD)
- Design-build-operate (DBO)
- Design-build-operate-finance (DBOF)
- Public-private partnerships (PPP)
- Engineer-procure-construct (EPC)
- Engineer-procure-construction management (EPCM)
- Construction management at risk (CMAR)
We look at projects from every angle and develop tailored execution plans and flexible solutions based on scope, complexity, schedule and budget expectations, stakeholder alignment, and market conditions to overcome any potential barriers to success and—most importantly—meet your goals.
With early project delivery, improved facility functionality, reduced environmental impacts, and lowered capital and operating costs, APD can help make your project smarter, faster, better, and more affordable.
