Milwaukee Design-Builders

Enhancing the City's Vitality Through Turnkey Design & Construction

ARCO has the ability to tap into our team's local presence, knowledge and roots in the Milwaukee market, while offering the full strength of the enterprise nationally. ARCO/Murray partners with engineers and designers who leverage the most advanced tools and methodologies for a complete project solution - from initial planning, due diligence and design through construction and warranty. Our breadth of experience ranges from large-scale warehouse developments and build-to-suit cold storage and manufacturing facilities to extensive adaptive reuse, office and entertainment projects.

Early Budget Commitment

As a true design-builder, we'll work with you to dollarize decisions with different high-low options, procure long lead time items early and ensure the design meets your vision. We then commit to a project budget upfront.

Optimized Risk Transfer

Unlike the traditional design-bid-build GC approach, ARCO manages all the risk of a project once a contract is signed. You can breathe easy knowing the risk of schedule delays, design changes or cost increases are handled.

Single Point of Contact

You establish one contract with a single entity (us) who is then responsible for the entire project. This protects you from miscommunication, fee overlaps, and delays that often arise when contracting with multiple vendors.

Design-Build = Construction Made Easy

“Design-Build” is a term that often gets misused. It’s not a buzz word on a contractor’s website that yields the same results. A true design-builder offers turnkey engineering, architecture, MEP design, construction and more. Cost and speed matter, especially in a growth market like Milwaukee. That’s why we’re fierce believers in design-build. It not only simplifies the construction process for our clients, but also allows us to streamline the overall schedule, procure faster and provide value-added solutions upfront, as compared to the traditional design-bid-build model.

So, whether you are looking to build an industrial development from the ground-up outside the city limits or take on an extensive adaptive reuse project in an area like Walker’s Point, ARCO/Murray keeps your project on time and on budget.

Cushman & Wakefield

Why Clients Choose ARCO

“Our partnership with ARCO/Murray has been and continues to be very positive and beneficial. The project team had great knowledge of the local construction scene. We were confident that ARCO would meet the schedule and budget while providing an outstanding outcome, and we were right. Top notch project management and experience were key, and there were no difficult issues that could not be easily resolved which helped avoid delays and minimize expensive fixes.”

RSM

Why Clients Choose ARCO

“It was essential that we exit our prior facility within 90 days, and as a maker of Class 1 medical devices, we were absolutely unwilling to compromise quality for schedule. ARCO/Murray had less than 60 days to design, build and permit our new facility. My expectations were high, and they delivered.”

Orascoptic

ARCO is detail-oriented in both cost and schedule projections and delivers projects on time. They take ownership, especially when working closely with key project stakeholders, and provide a single-point-of-contact to streamline communication.”
