As a design-builder, Lincoln is a single souce of responsibility to the owner, thereby assuming all risk to deliver the project. This approach allows Lincoln and the owner to influence design and cost at an early stage while facilitating "fast track" construction.
As a General Contractor, Lincoln partners with the owner and his designer through a traditional design-bid-build process under either a negotiated or lump sum contract.
As a Construction Manager, Lincoln normally provides services on an "at-risk" basis where we are responsible for guaranteeing performance. However, if the owner prefers we may also serve as his agent with the owner holding all trade contracts.
Lincoln Builders being involved early in the design-build process had a lot to do with the success of this project. Your knowledge of constructability issues, subcontractor strengths and critical path dates helped keep this project on schedule in spite of site problems and weather delays.
