Types of Collaboration Models

In the construction and civil engineering sector, there are various ways to establish a working partnership. At DAV NORDIC, regardless of the collaboration model we operate within, our core values – honesty, teamwork, and job satisfaction – remain the foundation of how we work.

Below, you can read more about the different types of collaboration models commonly used in the construction and infrastructure industry.

Design & Build Contracts (Turnkey Projects)

We often take part in design & build contracts, where we assume a greater level of responsibility and actively contribute to solving complex challenges on behalf of the client.
We have solid experience managing the design process in-house, but we also frequently work in close cooperation with skilled and trusted partners to find the best solutions.

General Contracts, Trade Contracts & Framework Agreements

We also participate in general contracts and trade-specific contracts, where we contribute with our specialized expertise in defined areas.
In addition, we are involved in framework agreements, which help ensure a consistently high level of service and quality for the client over time.

Performance-Based Contracts

A performance-based contract is typically a long-term agreement covering the maintenance of pre-defined infrastructure elements.
These contracts are entered into between a contractor and the responsible road authority.
At DAV NORDIC, we have specific experience with performance-based contracts within our core business area: road safety solutions.
