This webinar will equip you with tactics that contractors, trade contractors, and owners should consider implementing now to prepare for and mitigate the cost impacts and disruptive effects of tariffs. These include processes to incorporate into your company’s standard procedures during the bidding and procurement phases to help eliminate or mitigate the cost impacts stemming from new tariffs. You will also gain strategies to leverage existing contract language, as well as new contract terms to insert into your contracts, to address and fairly allocate these risks.
Together, we will explore best practices and solutions to safeguard your projects and bottom line against tariffs.
Objectives
Assess the risk of tariffs on existing and future projects and consider methods to use during the bidding and procurement phases to mitigate or eliminate the cost impacts resulting from tariffs.
