From the earliest stages of project development, we give advice and guidance to commercial developers, colleges and universities, public authorities, and other owners regarding modern project delivery systems, including such advanced concepts as integrated product delivery, and other innovative solutions that best serve the project goals. As part of this process, we help to formulate and define the legal relationships and responsibilities between stakeholders to best promote project efficiencies and prevent costly changes and disputes as the construction proceeds. These services include:

• Advice and counsel on the selection of delivery method for capital projects, such as fixed-price Design-Bid-Build, Design Build, Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC), Construction Management at Risk, Multi-Prime, and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD).
• Negotiation and structuring of “front end bidding documents” to achieve better pricing and better results.
• Advice regarding the selection of an Owner’s Project Manager (OPM), defining the role of the OPM for any given project, and negotiating an appropriate contract with the OPM.
• Negotiation and administration of contract documents, whether standard form documents such as AIA Contract Documents and ConsensusDocs or manuscript documents such as engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contracts.
