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); 4) in response to questions posed to OAA’s Practice Advisory Services; and 5) OAA’s Practice Resource Committee.
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.
Join this informative webinar for an overview to the changes made to OAA 800 (short form contract).
Prior to the webinar, we encourage attendees to read both the new contract and guide.
