Is Construction Stuck in the 1960s?

This article was put up on reddit and brought up a really neat debate (all mature points from both sides). Thought I would post it on here since people have insightful thoughts as I've seen and get people's perspective on it. http://www.fieldwire.com/blog/collaboration/is-construction-stuck-in-th…

Working on a Letter of Award - When do you sign the Contract?

M
Mike Testro 👤 Member for 20 years 6 months

It happens regularly that a Contractor starts work on a letter of award and some time later he signs the contract.

It also happens that in the mean time things have changed in respect of changes to both time and money.

The Top Man signing has not been told that he is waiving his rights to claims for money and / or time.

Ignorance is not Bliss.

Best regards

Mike T.
