The method fits the project; the standard never moves.
Design / Build
One contract, one responsible party. Wallace & Smith carries the entire project: planning, design, bidding, permitting, construction and post-construction, with value engineering happening in real time during design.
- BIM design review, cloud collaboration and weekly face-to-face meetings
- All coordination is the design-builder's responsibility
- Reduced design time from concept to breaking ground
- Transparent bidding for value at the lowest possible cost
Fast Track Design / Build
Construction moves while design is still being refined, and the building is turned over operational: manufacturing and process equipment installed, PLC automation implemented, lines commissioned to a defined performance spec. Months come off the schedule without compromising quality.
- Equipment and processes installed as construction progresses
- Change orders all but eliminated by concurrent design
- One source of contract through plant start-up
- Proven on turnkey factories like Weatherford COROD, working in 7.5 months
General Contracting
The oldest delivery method: the owner's architect designs and develops construction documents, the project goes out to bid, and Wallace & Smith competes on the strength of 76 years of performance.
