DBIA IOWA CHAPTER | We appreciated the opportunity to hear from Leaders in the Des Moines market and learn what has shaped their careers and the lessons they've learned along the way. We heard our three leaders state that Collaboration is key for successful Design-Build leadership and projects. Strong leadership, mutual respect and early design collaboration leads to the benefits of time and cost savings as well as efficiency. They have all witnessed the recent growth of Design-Build and look forward to the continued growth.
