Alternative Delivery

Build Smarter. Deliver Faster. Together.

Alternative project delivery works best when the engineering partner is fully integrated from day one — not brought in after decisions are already made. Ardurra's Alternative Project Delivery practice partners strategically with contractors and owners to shape project outcomes from the earliest stages, identifying risks before they become problems, developing innovative solutions that improve constructability, and aligning the entire team around a shared definition of success.

With nearly $5 billion in transportation infrastructure delivered through alternative delivery models and 10 active projects currently underway, Ardurra brings proven experience across Adjusted Score Design-Build, Phased Design-Build, and Modified Phased Design-Build. Our award-winning CR 721 project for the Seminole Tribe of Florida reflects the kind of innovative, client-focused delivery our teams execute on complex, high-stakes programs.

Value engineering and alternative technical concepts

What sets Ardurra apart in alternative delivery is how we work—as true partners to both contractors and owners. Our team integrates seamlessly across project teams, aligning goals from day one to develop innovative, cost-saving solutions that benefit everyone involved. We act in the best interest of the project, identifying opportunities to streamline design, reduce risk, and accelerate construction. By developing innovative concepts, refining plans through value engineering, and optimizing constructability, we help deliver projects faster without compromising quality. This collaborative, solutions-focused approach enables us to provide real value to our clients while delivering critical infrastructure to the communities we serve.
