Yes & no.. it doesn't need to be an Architect to do the design. But you do get what you pay for. I design for a living, and have many buildings to my credit. I have seen the bad & good. I hate to say it, the final product (unless it is a spec build) is down to how much the client is willing to pay to do it right. The right way is for from the most economical way to do it. & trust me, most clients want to do it on the cheaper side.
