Bid Build
The traditional method by which many public and private infrastructure projects have been delivered is for the Contractor to prepare a cost estimate (Bid) based on a complete set of plans and specifications prepared under the direction of an Owner and, if the Contractor is deemed the lowest responsible bidder, will build that project in accordance with those plans and specifications.
In our 90+ year history, the Bid/Build method of project delivery has been our core delivery method. Steve P. Rados, Inc has an extensive proven record of successfully performing projects under the Bid/Build method of project delivery.
