​

Negotiated Contracts. This approach is where you interview contractors and choose to work with a particular builder in advance of final cost estimating, and then negotiate a price for the work. This can be fixed, a cost plus a fixed fee, or it can be cost plus a percentage.  Working in this manner allows for an open book format where everyone sees the numbers and plays a role in determining the project players.

​

Competitive Bids. With this approach, the client solicits bids and then chooses a contractor, presumably the lowest bidder from a group of qualified bidders. When we are asked to work in this format we provide a lump-sum bid and build the project per the plans and specifications managing the work as we best see fit. The competitive bid method is the cost control in this format.
