How do we start working with IDD?
Start with a conversation. Tell us about your organization, project, goals, location, and where you are in the process. We’ll learn more about your needs and help determine the best way we can work together.
How early should we contact IDD?
The earlier, the better. Involving us early allows us to help you think through feasibility, priorities, budget, planning, and design before important decisions have already been made. However, if your project is already underway, we can still explore how we can contribute.
How are your fees determined?
Every project is different, so our fees depend on the scope, size, complexity, location, and services required. After understanding your project and needs, we can discuss the appropriate scope and fee structure.
How long does a project typically take?
Project timelines vary depending on the size, complexity, approvals, scope of services, and construction requirements. Once we understand your project, we can provide a more realistic timeline for the work involved.
