Construction
Disenyo muna. Problema later.
- Sunod-sunod na trades sa site
- Panahon at retrabaho
- Walang taning na oras
- Gumagalaw ang presyo pagkatapos ng drawing
Sira-sirang impormasyon. Mabagal, delikado, mahal.
Assemblies
Design-build. Isang sistema.
- Plant-made DFMA components
- Sukat ayon sa buhay ninyo
- Buong Pilipinas sa loob ng 12 buwan
- MDCC TECH OPC — hindi design-only
Isang assembly contract. Malinaw ang daan papunta sa site.
What “assemblies” means
Components are designed for manufacture and assembly (DFMA): shared plant-made systems configured to your lot brief. The house arrives as an assembly system — not a craft build reinvented on every site.
What construction usually means
Traditional PH residential construction is on-site labor, sequential trades, weather delay, and open-ended timelines. Calma.Basic is built to avoid that pattern for semi-furnished homes maximum 2 storeys (residential under 15 metres).
What you still own as Owner
Not included: swimming pools, fences, gates, landscaping, solar systems, ELV systems, water tanks, village bonds, kitchen equipment, curtains, driveways, delivery to site, loose furniture (FFE). Logistics to site are for the Owner’s account. Calma.Basic covers the house system under design-build — not site works or loose furniture.
Timeline
Target delivery is nationwide within 12 months — Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao — as assemblies, not an open-ended build saga.
FAQ
Is Calma.Basic a DIY kit?
No. It is a design-build DFMA assembly under Performance Based Contracting with MDCC TECH OPC — not a self-build kit and not design-only consultancy.
Is this the same as generic prefab?
No. The category is Building System Architecture for Component Assembly Housing — lot-sized models, five-star ID specs, and a named design-build party — not a commodity prefab listing, and not stacked box modules.
What does DFMA mean?
Design for Manufacture and Assembly — plant-made systems, least construction on site. Full guide: /dfma.
