The Process

With Blackstone Industrial you get a proven team who are engineers, constructors,integrators & plant operators. To streamline the construction process,Blackstone Industrial’s normal development & execution model employs a fast-track method of project delivery.  The fast-track method integrates development & design; as well as design & construction, so that all activities progress as close to simultaneously as is practical & prudent. This reduces project duration, cost and avoids many of the pitfalls that can delay project progress & completion.

Fast-Track Method

Blackstone manages contracts differently.  We collaborate closely with the Owner as a team in a phased manner. The result is that design / bid / build happens in rapid-fire succession with components / phases of each happening simultaneously.

Fast Track Timeline

  • Design-Bid-Build

    In the Design-Bid-Build process, typically, the owner works and contracts directly with the engineer,architect and contractor separately. The owner is responsible for the decision-making, design, purchasing and risk. This is a common project strategy,however;

    • It is often costly in both resources and time.
    • Disconnects between the design of the project and the actual implementation can develop because efforts are less integrated.
    • The risk of miscommunication increases.
    • Expectationsand results can be far removed from each other.

Fast-Track

In our Fast-Track process, the owner works directly with Blackstone as a fully integrated member of the Project Team. Blackstone takes on all the burden of risk in this Turnkey Design-Build process; but the Owner is intimately involved.  

  • Thisreduces cost of both time and resources.
  • Maintains a consistent collaboration between the owner and the design-build team.    
  • Phases expectations and results so that you are intimately familiar with each step of your project’s progress towards completion.
