A successful "Co Design&Build" contract is one that is phase-based.
Does your company have a real estate project? Do you want to construct an industrial building, logistics platform or offices?
OpenBox first gains a detailed understanding of your project and its specific requirements by engaging in constructive dialogue with your staff. Collaboration doesn't just happen, it needs be fostered right from the start, without ruling out the option of going with another provider. This upfront effort enables OpenBox teams to properly understand the intricacies of your project and to better meet your requirements.
After completion of the preliminary design contract and before entering into an official contract, a benchmarking phase enables you to verify the competitiveness of the OpenBox solution and business model.
