Creating consistent subcontract flow-down provisions is only the first step in essential subcontracting practices to keep your projects running smoothly. This webinar will provide General Contractors and Subcontractors with critical insights on key risk allocation clauses and traps for the unwary that can prevent project success. After the subcontract execution, maintaining focus on the criticality of flow-down obligations and rights throughout project execution and proper subcontract administration is as important as the flow-down clause itself. You will learn how to maintain the proper balance and flexibility in day-to-day project-level communications, documentation, and scheduling. This is crucial for ensuring smooth interactions among Owners, General Contractors, and Subcontractors, especially when dealing with change orders and claims.
Objectives:
- Learn the importance of other clauses and a general flow-down clause that helps implement the flow-down risk allocation.
- Make you aware of seemingly minor subcontract wording changes that can dramatically shift risk and alter flow-down rights and obligations.
- An understanding that baseline schedules and schedule updates are critical project communications and documentation to subcontractor coordination and avoiding problems.
- Gain insight on communicating in a manner consistent with the practical reality of the importance of flown-down rights and obligations when subcontractors are involved.
