Negotiating and Drafting Construction Contracts Toolkit
A Toolkit that compiles essential resources for parties negotiating and drafting construction contracts for privately owned projects. This Toolkit offers guidance and practical strategies for all project participants, including owners, contractors, construction managers, subcontractors, and design professionals. The curated resources assist in navigating different project delivery systems, pricing structures, and standard industry documents, such as those from AIA Contract Documents (ACD) and ConsensusDocs. Users will find topic-specific guidance for drafting key contract provisions, along with standard clauses, practical checklists, and state law comparison charts. By leveraging the materials in this Toolkit, all contracting parties can gain a deeper understanding of how to mitigate potential risks, reach a balanced contractual approach, and properly allocate risk to the appropriate party.
