Our Design-build approach
We offer a comprehensive design-build approach, or what we call an Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) service that seamlessly integrate creativity, innovation, and expertise. As a single-source solution provider, we bring together the art of design and the precision of construction under one roof, offering a streamlined and collaborative approach to project delivery.
At Alternate Mechanics, we understand that the success of a project lies in the harmonious fusion of design and construction. Our experienced team of architects, engineers, and construction professionals work hand-in-hand from the project’s inception, ensuring a cohesive vision and flawless execution.
From conceptualization to construction, our Design-Build process ensures continuity and collaboration. Our designers and construction experts work side by side, allowing for real-time adjustments, value engineering opportunities, and the integration of innovative solutions. This integrated approach fosters creativity, maximizes efficiency, and eliminates the potential for costly redesigns.
We turn the client’s ideas and requirements into drawings from architectural to structural.
We use Building Information Modelling and VDC as a whole to meticulously plan the whole construction process, generate estimates. We also assist the client get the necessary approvals and permits.
integrated project delivery (IPD)
We offer an Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) service which combines all the above services into one service and it entails the following:
1. Concept Design: This initial stage involves working closely with clients to understand their vision, goals, and requirements for the project. Alternate Mechanics may provide concept sketches, mood boards, and 3D visualizations to help clients visualize the design possibilities and make informed decisions.
2. Design Development: Once the concept is approved, Alternate Mechanics would proceed to develop the design further. This involves creating detailed architectural plans, refining the design elements, and incorporating any necessary structural or engineering considerations.
3. Construction Documentation: At this stage, the company would generate the necessary construction documents, including detailed drawings, specifications, and material schedules. These documents serve as a guide for contractors and construction teams during the implementation phase.
4. Project Management: Alternate Mechanics may take on the role of project manager, overseeing the construction process. They would coordinate with contractors, suppliers, and other stakeholders, ensuring that the project progresses according to the design intent and timeline.
5. Construction Administration: Throughout the construction phase, Alternate Mechanics would conduct site visits, review progress, and address any design or construction-related issues that may arise. They would collaborate closely with contractors to ensure the project is executed to the highest standards.
6. Project Completion: Once construction is finished, Alternate Mechanics would inspect the final result, ensuring that it aligns with the design and meets the client’s expectations. They may also assist with any post-construction services, such as interior design, landscaping, or final touch-ups.
By covering all stages of construction, from concept design to project completion, Alternate Mechanics provides a comprehensive approach that allows clients to have a seamless experience and ensures the successful realization of their architectural projects.
