Course Description

This five-day course focuses on unique construction contracting issues, such as acquisition planning, contract performance management, funding, environmental concerns, construction contract language, construction contracting in the commercial setting, the Construction Wage Rate Requirements statute, and modifications. Due to the complex nature of this business, you will be required to research outside of the FAR, including supplements, environmental law, fiscal law, zoning regulations, and public safety. With the knowledge gained upon successful completion, you will be able to understand how a construction contract works from pre-solicitation to post-award.
