The IWS Design-Build Team handles all facets of Water and Wastewater Treatment design and construction.  As a design-builder, Integrated Water Services, Inc. wants accountability for engineering, permitting and construction.  By pursuing design quality, and by effectively controlling costs and schedule, a design-builder makes certain that concept-to-completion becomes a successful reality. 

In a "traditional" contracting approach a client commissions an architect or engineer to prepare drawings and specifications and separately selects a construction contractor or construction manager either by negotiation or competitive bidding.

A design-build team is jointly involved in producing a product that meets a client's needs rather than merely acting as professional advisors.  Collaboration of design and construction experts is the foundation of design-build.
Benefits of design-build project delivery include:

• Single point responsibility
• Early knowledge of cost
• Time savings
• Cost savings

IWS’ strategy is to closely oversee all elements of the design-build process and perform significant portions of the design-build contracts in-house. Our design-build process is seamless integrating three key phases:

THINK - DESIGN - BUILD
