Frequently Asked Questions
What is a construction delivery method?
A construction delivery method is the process used to plan, design, and build a project. Different delivery methods define how owners, designers, and contractors work together, how contracts are structured, and when the contractor becomes involved. KE&G delivers projects through CMAR, Design-Build, Bid-Build, Job Order Contracting (JOC), IDIQ, and self-performed construction.
How do I know which delivery method is right for my project?
The right delivery method depends on your project's goals, schedule, budget, complexity, and procurement requirements. Our team works with owners early in the planning process to evaluate these factors and recommend the approach that best supports a successful outcome.
What is the difference between CMAR and Design-Build?
With Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR), the owner hires both the designer and contractor separately, allowing the contractor to provide input during design while establishing a Guaranteed Maximum Price before construction begins.
With Design-Build, the owner hires a single team responsible for both design and construction, creating one contract and one point of accountability throughout the project.
What types of projects are best suited for Job Order Contracting (JOC)?
Job Order Contracting is ideal for organizations that have ongoing construction, repair, renovation, or maintenance needs. Schools, municipalities, healthcare systems, military installations, and government agencies often use JOC to complete multiple projects quickly without repeating the competitive bidding process.
What is an IDIQ contract?
An Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract allows owners to complete multiple projects under a single master agreement over a defined period. It provides flexibility for recurring work while reducing procurement time and administrative costs.
What does self-perform construction mean?
Self-perform construction means KE&G completes critical scopes of work using our own employee owners, equipment, and field leadership rather than relying entirely on subcontractors. This provides greater control over quality, scheduling, safety, and overall project execution.
Does KE&G only work on public infrastructure projects?
No. While KE&G has extensive experience delivering public infrastructure, we also serve commercial developers, industrial clients, utility providers, mining operations, educational institutions, healthcare organizations, and private owners throughout Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.
Can KE&G help before construction begins?
Yes. Our preconstruction services include budgeting, estimating, constructability reviews, scheduling, value engineering, phasing strategies, and delivery method selection. Early collaboration helps reduce risk, improve cost certainty, and position projects for success before construction starts.
Does KE&G provide both heavy civil and commercial construction?
Yes. KE&G combines heavy civil expertise with commercial construction capabilities. Our Civil Division self-performs earthwork, underground utilities, paving, and structural concrete, while our Commercial Division serves as the general contractor through final occupancy. This integrated approach provides owners with a seamless construction experience from site development through project completion.
Why should I choose KE&G?
For more than 50 years, KE&G has delivered infrastructure and commercial construction projects across the Southwest. As a 100% employee-owned company, we combine self-perform capabilities, collaborative project delivery, and a nationally recognized safety program to deliver quality projects with accountability at every stage.
