TIME: 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
OAA contracts are written in consultation with groups representing: 1) owners; 2) construction law specialists who represent owners, contractors, and consultants; 3) in response to a review of Requests for Proposals (RFPs); and 4) in response to questions posed to OAA’s Practice Advisory Services. With the changes brought forward by the launch of CCDC 2–2020, the OAA worked on revamping their OAA Contract Suite to reflect the updates. For each of the contracts in the OAA 2021 family of contracts, there is a guide document to the use and contents of the contracts. Join this informative webinar for an introduction to the changes made to OAA 600 (long form contract), OAA 800 (short form Contract) and OAA 900 (Subconsultant contract form).
