WEBINAR DESCRIPTION
As the construction industry continues to embrace and adopt modular construction, contractors should be aware of potential vulnerabilities and risks found in contracts.
Due to prefabrication combining construction and manufacturing elements, fundamental risk allocation principles and competing contract law interpretations alter what your prime and subcontract contracts must address. This complexity affects performance, payment, warranties, inspections, risk of loss and other issues if left unaddressed in your contracts and may lead to misinterpretation.
Join ConsensusDocs to learn:
- • The benefits and potential hidden risks of off-site construction and their impact on your construction contracts
- • Varying applications of the Uniform Commercial Code for manufacturing or common law to construction cause vastly different outcomes in critical issues regarding warranties, transportation, inspections, payment and more
- • Ways to use or incorporate language from the ConsensusDocs standard agreement between constructor and prefabricator and soon-to-be-released owner/prefabricator prime-level agreement for your next off-site, prefabrication and modular construction project
