Building Smarter, Not Harder

IDP Build helps investors turn capital into cashflow by controlling cost and risk before construction begins.

Through expert, peer-level oversight and clear stage gates, we engage designers and builders only when needed—eliminating overwork, rework, and wasted fees.

The result is faster delivery, fewer surprises, and a building that is right-sized, on budget, and ready to perform from day one.

Fewer Surprises

7-Step Integrated Design Process

A proven methodology that front-loads coordination so pricing stabilizes before money is committed.

1

Brainstorming

Owner, key partners, and builders aligned early around goals, constraints, and business priorities.

Concept Exploration — Fast sketches and options to test feasibility before real money is spent.

2

2D Design

First architectural layout establishing scope, size, and intent.

3

3D Integrated Design

Engineering included; systems coordinated and risks surfaced early.

4

Owner Selections

Guided choices made with real cost and schedule insight.

5

Final Budget & Scope Lock

Clear definition of what's in, what's out, and what it costs.

6

Buyouts & Commitments

Trade pricing locked, schedule confirmed, agreements executed, and construction documents finalized for smooth execution.

7

Auto-Pilot Construction

Predictable build with fewer surprises and faster delivery.

What Our Process Delivers

Predictable Cost Earlier

Owners usually don't get real cost clarity until late design or even construction. We front-load coordination so pricing stabilizes before money is committed.

"I know what I'm buying before I start buying it."

Fewer Change Orders

Decisions are made when enough information exists—not prematurely, not reactively. Changes become intentional, not expensive surprises.

"Changes are intentional, not expensive surprises."

Faster Path to Usable Building

Because design, pricing, and constructability are aligned early, construction flows with fewer stops.

"My building starts working for my business sooner."

Risk Designed Out Early

Most project risk is embedded long before shovels hit dirt. We reduce scope and coordination risk upstream—where it's cheapest.

"We eliminate risk while it's still affordable."

Talent Used Surgically

Routine production goes to low-cost, well-prepared sources. Senior designers focus only on leverage decisions.

"I'm paying fair rates for judgment, and low rates for busywork."

Our Team

IDP Build is led by partners Kyle Wood and Terri Erickson, seasoned industry experts, who unite construction and design leadership into a single, disciplined approach.

Kyle Wood

Construction Integration

Kyle grounds decisions in construction reality—cost, cash flow, sequencing, trade coordination, and buildability—ensuring planning efforts hold up in the field.

Terri Erickson, PE

Design Integration

Terri serves as the Design Coordinator, integrating architects, engineers, and consultants at the right time and in the right amount to protect owners from cash flow leakage, premature designer involvement, and over-processing of work.

Their goal is to establish clear "just-in-time" decision making and cash flow boundaries for all stakeholders towards minimizing waste by unnecessary and out of sequence choices for clients while keeping design efforts focused and productive.

Together, Kyle and Terri guide owners toward better value, actively controlling the design process, engaging trade contractors early when it makes sense, and guiding all stakeholders through IDP Build's 7-step process—so projects move into construction with clarity, confidence, and control.
