Control rooms are essential operating centers for pipelines and midstream operations. As such, they cannot be approached as if they are any other building. The design-build process needs to involve collaborative design with the owner and focus on a clear understanding of the functionality needs of the owner organization. Owner organizations are moving to design-build partners for control room buildings because they have seen the advantages of having a single source of accountability throughout the project. Design-build companies offer the advantage of a complete multi-discipline team to handle all aspects of the control room design. They provide a more seamless transition from the design stage to the build, which reduces change orders and improves delivery schedule.
