June 2003--With design and construction being conducted concurrently, Passero Spoleta Design-Build, L.L.C. raced to complete a building renovation for the Bay View YMCA to be used for program and lavatory space by summer day camp children.

This project had a unique time constraint due to Day Camp beginning June 23. The project began in May; therefore Passero Spoleta Design-Build overlapped design and construction activities allowing for effective scheduling and immense time savings, resulting in a schedule savings of an entire month.

The YMCA decided to adopt the Design-Build delivery method for this project, allowing for a turn-key approach to both design and construction services. They did so to guarantee a maximum price early on in the planning process and allow for the most expeditious construction possible.

Passero Spoleta Design-Build was incorporated in 2002 as a way to facilitate an alternative project delivery method to the traditional design-bid-build method. Passero Spoleta Design-Build represents a cohesive group of over 120 highly trained, experienced, and diversified construction professionals, from architects and engineers to general contractors and builders.
