Sherman Botts (Construction - Kansas City) will serve as guest speaker and present "Risk Avoidance" to the Mid-America Region of the Design-Build Institute of America on February 9 in Overland Park, Kansas. His presentation will focus on risk avoidance issues that typically arise in contract negotiations and during the construction project. Additional focus will turn on key contract provisions in DBIA contracts, preserving claims (claim provisions and change order provisions), and the enforceability of liquidated damages/no damage for delay clauses.
