Design Management

Design Management

Project management for the design development of complex transportation projects is often directly controlled by the agencies themselves; however, some organizations have chosen a more creative path to project fulfillment. Design management is a process during which the consultant functions as an extension of the transportation agency’s staff to manage, direct, and coordinate the efforts of one or more design teams toward the completion of multiple projects.

Our clients have selected SAI Consulting Engineers, Inc. because of our knowledge and experience with transportation design issues, including our ability to work with their staff, cooperate with other consultants, maintain project control, and deliver a successful project.
