For design-build firms

Design to delivery,
one continuous thread.

The magic of design-build is that nothing gets lost between the drawing and the build. GoBuild keeps the budget, the selections, the schedule and the client on one thread — so the promise you designed is the job you deliver.

Proposals · allowances · selections · schedule · client portal

Sound familiar?

The hand-off is where it breaks.

Design in one tool, budget in a spreadsheet, build in another — and the client's vision leaks out at every seam.

🔀

Design and build on different islands

The design intent lives in one place, the budget in another, the build in a third — and the through-line gets lost.

💰

Budgets that drift from design

Every design decision has a cost, but if the budget isn't live, you find out at pricing that the dream doesn't fit.

🎨

Selections that stall delivery

A hundred design decisions to shepherd, and any undecided one holds up the trades.

📉

No single source of margin

Design hours, allowances and construction costs live apart, so real project profit is a quarter-end surprise.

How GoBuild helps

One thread, concept to keys.

Design intent, budget and build on one platform, so what you promise is what you deliver — profitably.

01 · Proposal

Win with a clear proposal

Present phased design-build proposals with allowances and options, and convert the signed agreement into a live project with budget attached.

02 · Design

Hold the budget to the design

Track allowances and selections against a live budget, so every design decision shows its cost while there's still time to choose.

03 · Schedule

Schedule design and build together

One re-flowing timeline spans design milestones and construction phases, so approvals and trades stay in step.

04 · Field

Capture the build

Daily logs, photos and hours flow from the field — the delivered result documented against the designed intent.

05 · Margin

See true project margin

Design effort, allowances and construction costs roll into one live margin, so profit isn't a surprise at closeout.

06 · Get paid

Delight and get paid

Bill by phase with a pay-by-link, and give the client a portal where design, selections, progress and approvals all live in one calm place.

One thread

Design-build software that unites design, budget and construction

Design-build software should do the one thing design-build promises: keep design and construction on a single thread. GoBuild unites proposals, allowances, selections, scheduling and job costing so the vision you design is the project you deliver — without the hand-off leaks that plague split design and build teams.

Run design-build proposals with options and allowances, hold a live budget against design decisions, schedule design and build on one timeline, and see true project margin — all with a client portal that keeps the experience seamless.

From residential design-build to light-commercial, GoBuild keeps concept, cost and construction in one place.

Common questions

Can it track allowances against a live budget?

Yes — every allowance and selection is tracked against a live budget, so design decisions show their cost while the client can still choose.

Does one schedule cover design and construction?

One re-flowing timeline spans design milestones and build phases, so approvals and trades never fall out of step.

Where do clients see design and progress?

A single client portal holds design selections, approvals, progress and invoices — one calm place for the whole journey.

Will I see real project profit?

Design effort, allowances and construction costs roll into one live margin, so profit is visible throughout, not a closeout surprise.

Design the promise.
Deliver it, profitably.

Proposals, allowances, scheduling, costing and a client portal come with every GoBuild account — live in a weekend.
