Our Approach to Design-Build
You’ve probably heard the construction horror stories of change orders; battles between the engineers, architects and contractors; and subcontractor performance issues. See the difference when you work with one team who handles it all.
TRADITIONAL WAY
FINFROCK WAY
Our Approach to Sustainability
Precast concrete’s inherent properties make it a natural choice for achieving sustainability with today’s new buildings. With weather and climate disasters projected to increase –the most sustainable building becomes the one that is strong enough to be built once.
LEAN MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS
Lean Manufacturing focuses on decreasing the waste in a production environment, which in turn increases both efficiency and quality. By viewing our own manufacturing processes through these strategies, we create better standards for our precast facility to operate with.
The lean manufacturing focus to remove waste is achieved through many organizational techniques such as 5S, Visual Management, and Gemba Walks.
A Lean mindset impacts both how teams interact and how efficiently or fast teams deliver a project. Miscommunication errors decrease as project stakeholders are engaged to work together creatively and collectively to address issues
As part of instilling a lean culture among our employees, they are presented with opportunities to apply 5S strategies on projects that will reduce waste and increase value in their workspaces.
POSITIVE IMPACT DURING CONSTRUCTION
Our modular approach makes for less cluttered construction sites and delivery disruption to the local community surrounding the site.
Offsite construction reduces onsite labor, and in turn reduces the number of injuries and health hazards on the job site.
Construction with precast concrete causes minimal site disturbance and optimizes site space, allowing for high efficiency use of tight urban areas.
Unlike wood, precast concrete does not require harmful chemical preservatives to prevent deterioration.
DESIGNED FOR DURABILITY
From assuring our materials are repurposed responsibly to assuring factory-level quality, FINFROCK’s precast/prestressed buildings systems offer owners a resilient solution leading to value and longevity.
Concrete from FINFROCK’s manufacturing plant is recycled as fill or road-based materials. Other materials such as wastewater are recycled into the concrete mix.
Precast concrete is a strong, durable, flexible material that delivers over 100 years of service life, making it resistant to elements and damage that would cause other buildings to deteriorate and end up in landfills.
Precast concrete allows flexibility for redesign or retrofit, so a building can be used for a variety of purposes by several owners over a series of decades.
SOLAR POWERED
ENERGY OPERATIONS
Powered by the brightest, most visible energy source available in the Sunshine State, FINFROCK has taken major steps toward developing renewable energy at its Apopka headquarters. Solar panels are installed on many of our projects, including our manufacturing facility, to provide a clean source of energy and reduce our carbon footprint.

Construct with Insight, Not with Effort
We provide quality design and construction services in Florida and beyond for apartments, parking garages, hotels, offices, and student housing. Throughout our 78-year history, FINFROCK has constructed over 300 parking garages and several award-winning multifamily and hotel structures. We provide construction and design solutions to a variety of clientele while meeting budget and delivery schedules.
Design-Build VS. Design-Bid-Build
Design-build is quickly growing in popularity in the United States as the preferred project delivery method in construction. The benefits of design-build are faster construction and delivery, less cost and schedule growth, and being less litigious than design-bid-build or construction manager at risk. Moreover, the Design-Build Institute of America’s (DBIA) research shows that design-build is the best-performing project delivery method for both schedule and cost over every other.
With such compelling evidence to use design-build, what myths are keeping “the other half” rooted in less beneficial delivery methods?
