Design-Build

Integrated design and construction delivery for water and wastewater infrastructure

Design-build delivery provides single-point accountability from concept through commissioning, accelerating your schedules, improving constructability, and reducing owner risk. When design and construction are integrated from the start, you get optimized water and wastewater systems.

Systems Group Inc. specializes in design-build delivery of water and wastewater infrastructure for municipalities, developers, and consulting engineers. We build, design, and construct systems with long-term performance and operational reliability in mind.

What Design-Build Means for Your Project

Single Point of Accountability

With design-build, you have one partner responsible for design, construction, commissioning, and performance. There’s no back-and-forth between designer and builder; we own the outcome.

Early Constructability Input

We identify constructability issues, cost drivers, and schedule risks during the design phase. This prevents expensive changes and delays during construction.

Faster Project Delivery

Design and construction activities overlap. We can start site work, procurement, and prefabrication while the design is being finalized. This accelerates schedules compared to traditional bid-build delivery.

Cost Certainty

You get clear cost and schedule commitments early in the process, reducing budget uncertainty and allowing better project planning.

Optimized for Operations

Because we operate 90% of the facilities we build, we design systems with maintainability, reliability, and long-term performance in mind.

Facilities We Deliver Through Design-Build

Lift Stations

Wastewater and stormwater lift stations with cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, or FRP wet wells. We've delivered lift stations with challenging site conditions, aggressive schedules, and high architectural specifications.

Potable Water Pumping Stations

Booster stations, well pumping, reservoir transfer, and distribution system pumping for municipalities, developers, and utilities. Custom design with hydraulic analysis and equipment selection optimized for your application.

Municipal Irrigation Pumping Facilities

Irrigation pumping systems for parks, sports fields, and municipal landscaping. We support stormwater reuse, seasonal operation, and integration with irrigation control systems.

Water Treatment Facilities & Skids

Potable water treatment systems, industrial process water treatment, and packaged treatment skids. We design systems that meet regulatory standards and deliver reliable water quality.

Private Sewage Systems

Provincially certified design and installation of private sewage systems for rural properties and developments.

Trust System's Design-Build Services

We Operate 90% Of The Facilities We've Built

This track record reflects client confidence in our work and our commitment to standing behind it. Because we operate the systems we build, we design and construct with maintainability, reliability, and long-term performance in mind.

We Bring Decades Of Water And Wastewater Experience

Our design decisions are informed by decades of on-site operational experience. We know what works, what wears out, and how to build systems that perform reliably for decades.

We Self-Perform The Critical Scope

Mechanical, structural, and process piping work is performed by our team. This gives us control over quality, schedule, and problem-solving.

We Prefabricate To Accelerate Schedules

Off-site fabrication while site work progresses allows us to deliver faster without sacrificing quality. We've completed aggressive schedules in challenging conditions using this approach.

We Provide Custom Design And Hydraulic Analysis

Every project is different. We design systems tailored to your application, supported by detailed hydraulic analysis to optimize pump sizing, efficiency, and performance.

We Deliver Turnkey Solutions

From excavation to commissioning, we handle all aspects of construction and installation. You get a single point of accountability and a system that's ready to operate.

We Implement Advanced Control Systems

We design and install real-time monitoring and automated operation systems using PLCs, VFDs, SCADA integration, and remote alarm notification. You get visibility and control over your systems 24/7.

We Integrate Seamlessly With Existing Infrastructure

We coordinate pipeline integration with existing or new force mains and gravity sewers, ensuring efficient wastewater and stormwater transport and municipal acceptance.
