Innovative Team Approach
Benefits of a Purchasing Cooperative
Until now, municipalities undertaking building projects were generally excluded from reaping the benefits of purchasing co-ops. But no longer! You can not only take advantage of a PA-approved co-op, but you can also leverage a fully integrated turnkey approach to managing your project from start to finish through a design-build process. This unique combination of services offers many benefits:
- Known price points leading to reduced costs
- Best value while meeting schedule, quality, and budget goals
- Design, construction management, and construction services in one contract
- Streamlined construction process with accelerated project timeline
- A single point of contact for the entire process, saving valuable staff time.
Fluid and Streamlined Process with a Single Point of Contact
Combining the benefits of a powerful purchasing co-op with a turnkey construction provider, Pennsylvania municipalities can now take advantage of the fully integrated design-build appoach for designing, building, and managing your next building or renovation project, from conception to completion. The design-build process offers a single point of contact for the project rather than juggling multiple contractors and companies. This makes the process much more fluid and streamlined from start to finish, allows for better coordination throughout the entire process, resulting in higher quality and reduced costs. Our design-build team consisting of BlueScope Construction, Professional Design & Construction, and RETTEW, using the power of co-op purchasing through Sourcewell, will deliver the quality facility you deserve on your next building construction or renovation project.
