Overview
Time truly is money, especially in construction. Consequently, being able to determine and document delay is a crucial skill for owners, contractors, subcontractors, design consultants, project managers and their legal team. This OnDemand Webinar will focus on the key terms, important contract provisions and the most successful approaches to the determination of delay. It will include a discussion of the importance of the critical path, the importance of the contemporaneous documentation and the pitfalls associated with discredited analytical techniques. It will also describe the underlying legal concepts and decisions. Step-by-step, real-life examples will allow you to see how the concepts and techniques presented in the program are actually applied. At the conclusion of the OnDemand Webinar, you will be able to identify and quantify delays before they occur, preventing unnecessary disputes and claims.
