FlexShell Delivery Method
Speed. Certainty. Agility.Traditional project delivery takes too long and leaves too much to chance. At ARCO, we’ve redefined the approach with our Target Value Design-Build model, purpose-built to align your facility with your business objectives from day one.
Why Our Model Works
We compress feasibility, design, and pricing into weeks, not months. You can make informed decisions earlier and move forward with confidence. The result: faster speed to market, predictable costs, and reduced risk.
Speed to Market
Integrated feasibility, design, and cost planning runs in parallel - not sequentially.
Cost Certainty
Guaranteed pricing eliminates budget surprises and allows for accurate forecasting.
Business Alignment
Every design choice is tied back to your operational goals and ROI targets.
Our Process at a Glance
From site and zoning analysis to accelerated delivery, our process is designed to remove uncertainty early and keep projects moving fast - without sacrificing performance or flexibility.
Early Intelligence
We start with comprehensive site evaluations, zoning and entitlement analysis, and economic incentive consultation. This front-end work ensures every location consideration supports your long-term growth.
Target Value Design
Master planning, feasibility studies, and conceptual layouts are rapidly developed alongside real-time cost models. This eliminates “design in a vacuum” and keeps your project financially grounded from the start.
Guaranteed Costing
We commit to early cost certainty with guaranteed pricing, giving you the ability to lock in budgets well before construction begins - even in volatile market conditions.
Accelerated Delivery
Our model reduces timelines without cutting corners. From permitting through construction, you move faster while maintaining scope and quality.
Ongoing Agility
As your needs evolve, our team can make real-time adjustments to design, scope, and schedule while staying aligned with your original business objectives.
The ARCO Advantage
Unlike traditional plan-spec or CM-at-risk models, FlexShell®’s delivery framework eliminates inefficiency and reduces risk transfer back to the owner. We operate as your single-source partner - from site selection through commissioning. This is why leading manufacturers trust ARCO to deliver facilities that aren’t just buildings, but business assets.
