Delivery methods

The right structure changes the outcome.

No delivery method is right for every project. We help ownership match control, speed, risk, and collaboration to the realities of the assignment.

Flexible by design

Different paths. One standard of accountability.

The selected structure defines roles and commercial terms. Our core expectations for planning, communication, and field leadership do not change.

Traditional

General Contracting

United Diversified delivers the work under a defined construction contract after design is sufficiently developed for pricing and procurement.

  • Clear construction responsibility
  • Competitive trade procurement
  • Direct schedule and field control
Collaborative

Construction Management at Risk

We join during design, support preconstruction, and transition into construction responsibility under an agreed commercial structure.

  • Earlier builder involvement
  • Open-book estimating and buyout
  • Continuous design-to-budget feedback
Advisory

Agency Construction Management

We act as the owner’s construction advisor, coordinating information, contracts, cost, schedule, and performance without replacing ownership’s contractual role.

  • Owner-side project controls
  • Independent reporting
  • Flexible contracting structure
Integrated

Owner & Development Support

Targeted support connects construction execution with development, financing, compliance, risk, draws, procurement, and asset considerations.

  • Early feasibility perspective
  • Commercial and administrative support
  • Lifecycle-focused decision making

Preconstruction

The delivery method begins before the work does.

01

Define the decision framework

Confirm priorities, approvals, reporting expectations, risk allocation, and the information required to proceed.

02

Test cost and constructability

Connect design decisions to current pricing, sequencing, logistics, procurement, and field conditions.

03

Build the execution plan

Establish the team, schedule, bid packages, controls, and communication rhythm before mobilization.

One team · Every angle

A clear structure creates room for better work.

United Diversified evaluates delivery through the lens of the owner, the field, and the long-term asset.
