What does Design/Build mean?

Design/build is a method of construction in which a single entity is responsible for both the design and the construction of a project. Design/build firms typically offer a turnkey solution, in which they handle all aspects of a project, from concept to completion. Design/build can be an efficient and cost-effective approach to construction, as it allows for a more streamlined process and can reduce the need for multiple contracts and subcontractors.
