Alternative procurement models beside lump sum contracts have been becoming increasingly popular over time. A Construction Management contract (CCDC5A) offers owners the opportunity to improve constructability and potentially get more cost certainty. Based on extensive experience with this contract type, this presentation will focus on defining what is a Construction Management Contract, what are the pros and cons of this contract type and how to best use this contract type, since a tool is only as good as its user. This presentation will include lessons learned from past projects to teach what works well and what doesn't.
