Description

What are the unique features of the main project delivery methodologies used in the design and construction industry? You will learn the differences between project delivery methodology, procurement selection, and payment types. Design-bid-build is still the most used project delivery methodology. Design-build and CM At-Risk are commonly used and increasingly frequent in both the private and public sectors. Industry practitioners laud the benefits of integrated project delivery (IPD).   Attend this webinar to understand how construction contracts create the structure for project delivery that determines who gets hired and how payment works.  You will also learn why change orders often have different payment terms than the main contract sum.
