Resource Highlight: MCAA’s What Are the Pros and Cons of OCIPs and CCIPs?

Subcontractors are often required to enroll in “wrap-up” insurance and loss control programs that cover the owner, general contractor (GC) and all subcontractors on a project. MCAA’s What Are the Pros and Cons of OCIPs and CCIPs? explains the benefits and drawbacks of two commonly used types of wrap-ups: the Owner Controlled Insurance Program (OCIP) and the Contractor Controlled Insurance Program (CCIP). It’s just one of MCAA’s educational resources that are free to MCAA members as a benefit of membership.

The bulletin covers:

• Considerations when working under a wrap-up
• The contract terms of most wrap-ups
• Potential estimating challenges
• Payroll and claims reporting requirements
• Documentation that should be provided to the project sponsor
• What to watch for
• Exclusions for certain sub-subcontractors
• Claims considerations
• Post project considerations

It also includes definitions and other information.
