Will I save money with design-build?

Maybe. Design-build has the potential to reduce overall project costs by eliminating the potential for conflicts between the designer and the contractor. If the owner makes design changes during the project, design-build may become more expensive. The potential benefits of design-build for an owner include a single point of responsibility for both design and construction, simplified contracting and speed of project delivery; often these approaches can save money, but not on every project.
