Specialty contractors on a Design-Assist project participate in a project’s design, providing input that maximizes system efficiencies, reduces costs, and potentially limits design errors or omissions. MCAA’s Design-Assist offers tips for mitigating the risks inherent in this type of project. It’s just one of MCAA’s educational resources that are free to MCAA members as a benefit of membership.
The bulletin includes:
- An introduction to design-assist
- The role of a design-assist contractor
- Why a design-assist project is potentially riskier than a design-bid-build (DBB) project
- How design-assist affects the Spearin Doctrine
- Takeaways from Coughlin
- Risk management recommendations for contractors
- Contract forms addressing design-assist obligations
