OUR DELIVERY METHODS

design bid build (hard bid/low bid)

In DBB, the owner hires a designer to create plans and specifications, and then invites contractors to bid on the project. Pricing on the job is submitted confidentially and the lowest priced bidder is awarded.

job order contract (joc)

JOC contracts allow for the completion of multiple, small to medium-sized projects within a single procurement contract. This streamlined process saves time, reduces administrative burden, and leads to cost savings.

construction manager at risk (cmar)

A CMAR is awarded to a contractor based on the experience, qualities, and project team. The owner benefits from the contractor’s expertise and input on the design and construction phases.

design build

Design Build is a procurement method where the prime contractor hires the design firm and they work together to build the project. The partnership starts from the design phase and ends with project closeout.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE SERVICES

As one of the largest underground utility and pipeline rehabilitation contractors in Arizona, our professional crews are ready 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to respond to emergencies, from small pipeline repairs in neighborhoods to fixing traffic signals in busy intersections.

B&F’s large number of crews allows us to have manpower ready to mobilize and be onsite within 2-3 hours for most locations in the Phoenix and Tucson metropolitan areas.

Our extensive inventory of emergency repair materials and equipment (pumps, repair couplings, barricades, plates, and more) allow us to assess and isolate the issue quickly.

B&F self-performs a wide variety of services and solve emergencies immediately without relying on vendors and rental companies, which saves time and money for our clients.

B&F will still provide constructability input as well as budget, schedule, design, and potential value engineering alternatives.
