Develop and construct

Develop and construct is another of the integrated procurement approach which is very much similar to design and build .

The contractoris still given the responsibility for both the design and construction of the project .

THe difference is that , unver this method the client's design consultants prepare the concept sketches or designs and passed them to the contractor who will develop them and produced the detailed working drawings . The contractor will then construct and complete the project based on what it has deeloped and produced .

Advantages

The developer is only dealing with one organisation that has sole responsibility for the success or failure of the design and construction .

It allows the developer to be aware of the total amount of financial commitment prior to the commencement of construction .
