The successful design and construction of health care facilities requires a carefully planned approach and coordination with a number of different trade contractors. Problems can occur when the project is not well-coordinated, which can lead to contractors’ extra work claims, requests for time extensions and reimbursement of costs associated with claimed delays, and disruption to the work. During this webinar the Alston & Bird panelists will provide valuable advice for owners, developers, construction managers, hospital administrators, public agencies, providers, and suppliers to call upon in their health care and medical facilities projects. This presentation will cover a variety of topics including:
- Compliance with design and construction industry standards
- Impacts of owner expertise in managing projects
- Selecting the right project delivery model
- Considering contractor qualifications
- Enforcing safety standards and requirements
- Avoiding and addressing the most common sources of construction claims
- Ensuring construction contracts account for and comply with financing requirements
- Shifting the risk to insurance
