Design-Bid-Build, or Hard Bid, is a model where the design is completed and the owner bids out a completed design in pursuit of the Low Cost Provider, in liue of the Best Value.  As Harper is dedicated to providing the overall best value to the client with regards to price, collaboration, quality, safety, and overall project success, Design-Bid-Build projects are pursued on a select basis.

Many clients find that pursuing the overall Best Value contractor provides the highest probability for project success.  In a Design-Bid-Build scenario, the Best Value can only be achieved by pre-qualifying general contractors and ensuring a completed design.
