Understanding and Negotiating Construction Contracts
Kit Werremeyer
<b>Understanding and Negotiating Construction Contracts</b> <p><b>The complexities of construction contracts are made easy with this thorough and readable guide</b> <p>Construction contracts can be complex for both owners and contractors. For contractors, negotiating fair and balanced commercial terms in contracts is just as important as properly managing projects; a properly negotiated contract can mitigate unnecessary risk and unnecessary risk transfer. This, in turn, reduces exposure to financial liability for the contractor and for avoidance of contract claims and disputes. <p><i>Understanding and Negotiating Construction Contracts</i> provides a comprehensive and readable introduction to the world of construction contracts. Providing, for example, coverage of the four most common types of contracts—lump sum/fixed-price, cost-plus, time-and-materials, and unit-pricing—it promises to reduce uncertainty and allow contractors to enter contractual negotiations with greater confidence to be able to achieve a fair and balanced contract. This updated new edition reflects the up-to-date best practices to understand how to better negotiate the commercial terms and conditions in construction contracts. <p>Readers of the second edition of <i>Understanding and Negotiating Construction Contracts</i> will also find: <ul><li>Updated information on indemnity, insurance, and negotiation</li> <li>An all-new chapter with a contract analysis checklist</li> <li>Real-world examples drawn from small residential, retail, large commercial, and international projects</li></ul> <p><i>Understanding and Negotiating Construction Contracts</i> is essential for construction professionals and college students studying construction contracts and the liabilities arising out of them.
