Description
This four-hour seminar will cover the new progressive design-build (CCDC 32 and 33) and traditional design-build (CCDC 14 and 15) contracts, including how the different models work, the key provisions of the CCDC forms, and what’s new from the previous versions, including the key changes incorporated from the CCDC 2 – 2020.

- The unique services called for under the progressive design-build model
- The critical importance of the Final Project Proposal, and how it ties into other contract documents like the Owner’s statement of requirements
- Key mechanisms and concepts, including project gates, early works, off-ramps, and more, are implemented in the CCDC 32
