Design-Assist & Design-Build Deliverables

We’re proud to be a design-assist and design-build contractor enabling seamless collaboration between preconstruction planning and the physical construction process, ensuring overlapping objectives are aligned and on time. Compared to a traditional design-bid-build approach, our team works in tandem with the construction process, whether we’re performing the labor or handing it off to your team. Our experience with the design-assist and design-build project delivery methods enables us to set a fast pace for project completion, eliminating unnecessary gaps in the project schedule through integrated project management, predictive analysis and proactive communication. In turn, we’re better able to control costs, cut rework and reduce risks inherent to the design-bid-build process that doesn’t allow for the same level of early collaboration. Trust Baker Group to turn projects around with precision and efficiency and position your business for optimal performance.

Preconstruction Services & BIM/VDC Capabilities

Baker Group’s building information modeling (BIM) technology and virtual design and construction (VDC) capabilities are at the forefront of our preconstruction services. Our 5D models improve design, timeline and budget accuracy so we can share the full picture with you or your team before progressing through the project. Depending on your preferred project delivery method, our preconstruction services include, but are not limited to:

Cost control and budget management
Risk analysis
Safety planning
Quality control planning and quality assurance monitoring
Life-cycle cost analysis
Code reviews

Preconstruction Project Controls & Cost Projections

At Baker Group, we go beyond traditional project management by providing a dedicated Project Controls team focused on keeping your design-assist, design-build, EPC and EPCM projects on time, on budget and built to the highest standards. We develop and manage integrated systems to track scope, schedule and costs, while giving owners complete visibility through:

Progress S Curve Reports to visualize project performance over time
Scheduled Productivity Indicators to track progress in line with the overarching plan
Labor Productivity Indicators to monitor efficiency and resource use

Combining these tools with proactive risk management and continuous performance tracking gives you the clarity and confidence to make informed decisions. With Baker Group, you gain the assurance that every decision is informed, every adjustment is intentional and every project is set up for success
