The Difference Between Public vs. Private Sector Construction
It doesn’t matter if you are undertaking a construction project in the public or private sector- you will face challenges that require an experienced construction company to successfully navigate. As a leader in the construction industry, McCownGordon has the extensive experience to complete your project. We strive to exceed the expectations of all our customers and are proud to be among the best construction companies in DFW.
What is the meaning of public vs private construction?
Construction projects are classified into types depending on who owns the project.
Private projects are owned by private entities. These can include restaurants, office buildings, retail stores and private schools.
Public construction projects are owned by a government entity. These projects involve buildings for use by the public, such as libraries, public schools, city halls and police stations.
How does the sector type impact the project?
Regardless of whether a construction project is funded by the public or private sector, there will always be specific project goals to meet and stakeholders to communicate with. The main difference lies in the plans and strategies for achieving those goals. (In both private and public sector projects, communication is essential.)
When we work on publicly funded projects, there are typically strict requirements and specifications to follow. If the construction project is privately owned, there is more flexibility with the delivery of the project.
