Streamlined project delivery from concept to completion — all managed under one roof
While Broad Reach Construction specializes in traditional commercial construction management projects, we also have the resources and expertise to deliver projects using the design-build approach when it’s the right fit. Design-build is just one of the many services we offer—not the only one. In this article, we’re highlighting how and why design-build can be a preferred method in certain scenarios, especially when speed, collaboration, and single-source accountability are key.
Design-build is a way to deliver projects. In this method, one company, Broad Reach Construction, handles both design and construction. Design-build is different from traditional design-bid-build methods. It offers a smooth flow of work. This reduces risk, saves time, and improves communication during the project.
As a design-build contractor, our team has seen firsthand how the design-build model results in better project outcomes.
For clients, this means faster delivery, fewer surprises, and a single point of accountability.
“In my 25 years in commercial construction, I have seen that the design-build model gives the best results for our clients.” It brings everyone together from day one—designers, engineers, and builders all as one team. This cuts confusion, shortens timelines, and helps us stay on budget. Clients get a single point of accountability, more transparency, and fewer surprises. It’s simply a smarter, more efficient way to build.”
— Kevin Morgan, CEO, Broad Reach Construction Inc.
At Broad Reach Construction, we use a Design-Build process. This process reduces confusion and delays. It helps keep your project aligned with your vision and budget.
Every phase is managed by one team. This team works from start to finish. You will enjoy clear communication, predictable costs, and great results.
Every successful project starts with understanding your goals.
In this first phase, we take time to learn about your business goals, site conditions, space needs, and operational requirements. Our Design-Build experts collaborate with you to identify priorities, project scope, and potential challenges before design even begins.
This discovery process helps us match your vision with realistic budgets, timelines, and technical needs. This sets a strong foundation for success.

Once we have a clear vision, our architects, engineers, and construction managers work together. They create designs that balance function, beauty, and cost.
This integrated collaboration is different from traditional design-bid-build projects. It allows for real-time feedback. Every design choice is evaluated for ease of construction, code compliance, and budget impact.
We provide drawings, 3D models, and cost-saving options. This will help you see what your project can be.

Before construction begins, we manage the crucial pre-construction details that determine a project’s success.
This phase includes detailed estimating, material procurement strategies, subcontractor selection, and permit coordination with local Raleigh or North Carolina authorities.
Our proactive planning reduces delays, improves cost accuracy, and ensures all stakeholders are aligned. “With Broad Reach Construction taking care of permits and rules, you can focus on your business. We will handle the paperwork.”
