We Take a Different Approach
Wouldn’t it be nice to have confidence that your project will be done on time, on budget, and in a way that furthers your vision? We strive to give you that confidence… how?
In a word: COLLABORATION.
Collaboration is at the heart of what we do here at Shelden Architecture.
Here are some key principles that drive our collaborations:
- You and your project are the hub of the collaboration with the rest of the team rounding out the wheel.
- Early on in the planning process, we assemble a team that includes a contractor and other consultants which allows us to troubleshoot problems that might arise during construction. The result is a well-designed, well-run project that meets your objectives. The whole team helps you as you establish your priorities whether your "hot buttons" are schedule, energy efficiency, public image, flow and functionality, or any of a hundred others.
- We can deliver projects using the more traditional "Draw, Bid, Build" approach in which a contractor is selected late in the process after most of the big decisions have been made. But we believe the team approach builds the best solutions. Why? Because we understand that there is much to know about what we do and that no one is capable of being an expert of it all.
- We partner with collaborators who seek first to understand the whole and are willing to consider different approaches.
- Time spent on the front end of the process will pay dividends down the road for your schedule, your budget, and the overall quality of your project.
- Through collaborative planning in the initial phase of the project we can provide better cost control, reduce and almost eliminate change orders, create better quality control, and make the entire process more understandable because of open communication.
