Course Catalogue.

After participating in this course, you will be able to:

• Understand the intended purpose of construction scheduling for proper project planning and coordination.
• Identify more than 15 types of scheduling games used to build claims against project owners.
• Implement over 45 suggested defenses to prevent schedule gamesmanship.
• Incorporate changes to contract document language during the design phase to mitigate potential scheduling issues.
• Apply pragmatic defenses on a daily basis with a knowledgeable construction management team, even without specific contract language.

Description
For both owners and contractors, a careful drafting and reading of the schedule specifications is imperative. Contractors can lose their rights; owners can lose their shirts. The intent of schedule specifications is to measure progress on the job but also to mitigate future delays and resolve past disputes. Learn what some industry-recognized specifications have done to combat abuse and why further changes may still be necessary.

The Construction Schedule Games Updated and Revisited paper will be provided to all attendees to serve as a checklist for identifying and addressing schedule games. This thorough treatment of the subject cannot be presented in one webinar, so it is being presented in a special two-part series. A 10-to-15 minute period has been reserved at the end of each session for an interactive question-and-answer period so attendees can discuss specific issues or gain additional knowledge about topics discussed.

Who Should Attend

This webinar is a must if you're a contractor, public or private owner, subcontractor, construction manager, owner's representative, architect, or other design professional providing project oversight services.
