Avoid problems due to multiple prime contracts and learn to reduce the risk of contractor claims for hindrance, disruption, delay, and interference.
This topic will help you learn the differences between the traditional design-bid-build contracting delivery system that employs a construction manager and/or general contractor, and those employing multiple-prime contracting. These differences require that each prime contractor understand their modified roles in the construction process and develop a framework by which impacts to the work of others are minimized. To this end, the material will discuss how to employ project controls and dispute avoidance processes to minimize the obstacles and issues that often result in projects experiencing cost overruns and extended time of performance.
