At Jos. Schmitt. Construction Co., we turn your visions into reality through innovative design-build solutions. Design-build streamlines the construction process by housing both the design team and the contractor team under one roof, allowing for faster project completion times, streamlined communication, and lower financial risks—without ever sacrificing quality.
The quality craftsmanship and customer-first mentality provided by our design-build team has earned us the reputation of Wisconsin’s most trusted construction company. By keeping everything in-house, we’re able to thoroughly oversee every step of the process, from initial planning to final conception, to ensure results you can rely on. Whether you’re looking for a small-scale remodel or a large commercial build-out, let’s begin exploring what’s possible with design-build.

In the design-build process, there is a single point of responsibility—everyone knows exactly who to go to with questions or concerns. This allows for straightforward accountability, a clear source of direction, and reduces unhelpful finger-pointing.
Thanks to the unified structure of design-build, communication is seamless as it flows amongst the team. This prevents the usual miscommunication commonly found in traditional construction, where gaps in understanding as information is passed between teams lead to errors and delays.
Because early cost estimation is an integral part of the design-build process, it’s easy to create a more accurate budget that lowers the risk of cost overruns. As an added benefit, the unified team can better identify the risk of unexpected expenses and avoid them during construction.
Design-build projects tend to be 33.5% faster than traditional construction projects due to the overlapping design and construction phases, which accelerate the schedule. Plus, in design-build, the bidding process is removed entirely, saving the project countless hours. Time is money, after all!
The continuous communication between members of a design-build team means that issues can be identified early on and the underlying causes pinpointed. Problems can then be resolved in real time, preventing costly and time-intensive obstacles later down the line.
In design-build, the integration of both the design and construction teams allows for consistency all across the board. This makes it easier to control the quality standards when everyone has the same expectations for the project and can communicate when there are discrepancies.
