Managing Construction Projects

Construction is a complex process. If not carefully managed at every phase, the opportunities for failure can be great. To maintain control and minimize the risks inherent in the construction process, it is necessary to stay current on construction issues and trends.

The purpose of this course is to provide guidance and updated information needed by owners and contractors, as well as attorneys who represent them, to enable the parties to successfully manage a project from the bid process, to contracting, through completion of construction.

Each topic area is discussed from three different perspectives: that of a construction manager on behalf of owners; that of a public and private sector contractor; and that of a real estate and financing lawyer.
