Description

Gain an understanding of the concepts, challenges, and potential risks of fasttrack construction.Inherent in all construction projects are the uncertainties that may cause cost overruns and extended time of performance. To manage these risks the parties, need to identify the potential risks that may be encountered assign responsibility for managing or minimizing the risk (among contracting parties or shift to a 3rd party) and implement a plan to avoid or minimize the potential impact of such risks. These steps start with the selection of the proper project delivery system and a clear delineation of responsibilities for the owner, designer, and contracting parties. When disputes arise, the successful defense resolution of a claim is dependent upon the level of information that can be gleaned from the project record and the manner in which this information is presented so as to clearly and concisely articulate, to both a trier of fact and the opposing party, the basis for the position offered. Drawing upon the knowledge and experience gained over the years on prior assignments and having seen the issues from both sides of the table, this topic will discuss lessons that have been learned on prior assignments and best practices that should be considered to ensure project success.

Description

Gain an understanding of the concepts, challenges, and potential risks of fasttrack construction.More and more construction projects are being done with at least some fasttracking where construction starts before the design is complete. At the same time, there are industry trends that are dramatically changing the way projects are designed and built. Understanding the challenges and inherent risks of fasttrack construction and these trends can help owners, architects, engineers and contractors maximize their potential for profit and success. Owners are attracted to fasttrack construction for potential money and time savings, but may not be aware of tradeoffs that may cause some project budget items to increase, including internal project management costs. Architects and engineers may not have a clear idea of how to plan and manage drawings and specification production to provide information when it is needed for construction in multiple phases. Contractors may not understand how some interactions with the design team may adversely affect project goals. This topic will help you understand the interaction between the three groups responsible for getting a construction project completed under the fasttrack method, and provides practical advice on contractual relationships and planning for a successful project.
