Streamlining Commercial Construction Services Through Design-Build
D Fickler Construction delivers turn-key commercial construction services through a single-source Design-Build framework engineered for total financial control, rapid execution, and complete project clarity.
We eliminate structural delays and budgetary expansion by managing your development under one contract from initial concept to final close-out. Our “womb to tomb” philosophy guarantees total accountability at every stage.
Eliminating Multi-Party Friction
Traditional plan-and-spec delivery forces commercial real estate developers, business owners, and facility managers to act as the liaison between separate design and construction firms.
This structure often triggers finger-pointing, budget overruns, and costly redesign delays when initial bids exceed financial parameters. D Fickler Construction replaces this multi-contract model with a unified system:
- Single-Source Accountability: A single contract holds DFC accountable for design fidelity, structural feasibility, schedule adherence, and overall project safety.
- Preventing Scope Gaps: At DFC, the Project Manager who develops your estimate also manages site execution, eliminating oversight during the transition from bidding to build.
- Daily Field Leadership: A dedicated, full-time Superintendent remains on-site daily to enforce quality control, while company owner David Fickler conducts bi-weekly site visits to guarantee execution standards.
- Continuous Value Engineering: We integrate real-time cost feedback into the design phase, evaluating building systems and materials early to protect your financial target.
DFC’s 4-Stage Integrated Execution Model
We maintain complete control over project schedules and quality metrics through an established four-stage delivery process:
- Vision & Consultation: We establish operational objectives, analyze site feasibility, evaluate municipal parameters, and set clear budget baselines.
- Collaborative Design & Renderings: Our design partners work alongside our management team to create functional, aesthetically refined architectural plans and detailed renderings that permit preconstruction visualization.
- Precision Construction Management: We deploy Procore project management software to give stakeholders real-time access to progress tracking, submittals, schedules, and client communication.
- Comprehensive Project Close-Out: We handle every detail of project handoff, including operational system walk-throughs, warranty documentation, and final administrative close-out.
