The Success
This Design-Build Team integrated a Best Value mentality while preserving Design Excellence for the Owner. The Team read, digested and then consolidated four volumes of criteria documents into some 200 critical Owner needs and objectives. This Criteria Matrix tool served to ensure every one of these Owner objectives received a Best Value solution and was implemented at every design meeting.
Although not required, the overall site design delivered a large, park-like campus core. The landscape and architectural hardscape instantly exceeded the County’s expectations and was a significant factor in winning the best design.
