Federal government contracting is a highly specialized industry. But Federal construction is even more specialized. The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and its supplementary regulations are uniquely applied to and impact construction contracts. These regulations impose a host of obligations on contractors that can affect performance and how contractors can seek compensation for unanticipated costs incurred on the job. Accordingly, familiarity with the specific FAR clauses addressing construction issues is critical to get the additional time and money you need.
In this webinar, McCarter & English Government Contracting partner Maria Panichelli provides attendees with a roadmap for navigating the most critical issues impacting Federal construction contractors–including changes, defective designs and specifications, differing site conditions, suspensions, delays, and contract terminations.
Attendees learn to recognize issues, provide appropriate notice, preserve claim rights, and guard against the most common government defenses.
