“The Dawes Corporation is founded upon customer service and integrity. Our mission is to provide quality construction management that exceeds the expectations of our clients while building strong and lasting relationships.”

The Dawes Construction Company is widely respected for its use of this original “Master Builder” concept. We provide an integrated solution for our clients that eliminates the finger-pointing that has unfortunately become commonplace in many construction projects. This allows our clients to look to only us with questions or concerns instead of having to deal with several contractors and consultants.

Design revisions, project feedback, budgeting, permitting, construction issues, change orders, and billings are all routed through our firm. “Isn’t this a lot of work?” some people ask? You bet it is! But this single point of contact allows maximum flexibility for our client.

For example: if a Design/Build mechanism is chosen, the owner, the owner’s other consultants, and the Design/Builder can work together to determine what methods and materials will maximize the owner’s value. In cases where marginally more expensive materials, designs, or construction methods might yield a higher return on investment for the owner than those of lower cost, the owner is free to adjust the project’s program without having to re-bid the entire project.

Another example is that change directives can be issued without having to readjust contracts or manage change order documentation with perhaps a dozen contractors. As a quality Design/Builder, Dawes Construction leverages this flexibility for the client’s benefit by continually refining the construction program to maximize the client’s value at the completion of the project. In other words, our clients must feel that the perceived value of the project exceeds the tangible or visible value – all while work on the project is performed within the allotted budget and schedule. 

The Design/Build experience and professionalism of the Dawes Construction Company will quickly show that the compression of time is only one of the important aspects of the implementation of this method. Full accountability by Dawes Construction, as well as single-source project delivery and a value-based project feedback system, will make your project a successful one.
