    Construction Contracts: Drafting Issues, Spotting Red Flags and Allocating Risk - Part 1

    • Speakers

    Thank you

    Thank you for joining us today.

    Description

    Construction contracts are among the most difficult agreements to draft or review and negotiate.

    At every stage, building is fraught with substantial risk – timely regulatory approvals, cost containment and price certainty, financing contingencies, building deadlines, and a host of other risks. If these risks materialize, as is common, the bargained for exchange among the parties and their expectations are radically unsettled.

    Construction contracts are a careful allocation of risks, a compromise between flexibility and price/cost certainty, and establish procedures for resolving disputes short of costly litigation.

    This program provides a practical guide to drafting the most important provisions of construction contracts.

    Part 1 topics include:

    • Reviewing and drafting essential provisions of construction contracts
    • Use and common mistakes in using AIA contacts in negotiations with builders
    • Defining the scope of a project and planning for modifications
    • How fees and costs are structured – and allocating risk of modification
    • Tying performance standards and timelines to payments
