RECORDING

Webinar Overview

This conversation and discussion will include:

  • How different standard form contracts (JCT, NEC3 and 4) deal with the different types of disruption that might arise from COVID-19.
  • Duties under design team appointments and on Contract Administrators/Employer’s Agents.
  • Time and cost consequences and what contractors should be doing now in respect of projects that are already under contract.
  • Considerations for contracts currently under negotiation – how can parties protect themselves now and should future contracts be dealt with differently from those already signed?
