Surety and Technology: Cybersecurity Best Practices
Construction and surety companies can minimize the threat of cyber-attacks by implementing the following preventive measures.
Risk Management
Responding to Hurricanes and Other Natural Disasters
An effective response to a severe weather or other force majeure event begins well before the first meteorological warnings. The force majeure provision in the project contract may dictate a contractor’s or subcontractor’s rights to recovery.
Repairing Flood-Damaged Floors
Businesses that fall victim to floodwaters will face a long list of challenges that need to be carefully approached in order to get the site back on its feet as quickly and effectively as possible.
What Contractors Should Consider Before Taking on Hurricane Rebuilding Projects
Construction owners and contractors can implement best practices to help rebuild post-hurricane while keeping stress to a minimum.
Key Risks Facing the Construction Sector
Contractors need to explore new ideas that support innovation, from anticipating emerging needs to supporting risk-taking, while balancing risk and opportunity in order to be successful in the future.
Stay Compliant With the Updated NPDES Permit
The most controversial and significant change is language making all operators at a site jointly and severally liable for any permit violation.
Prioritize Risk Management When Hiring Construction Workers
Managing a new and existing workforce during a transition poses significant challenges that can threaten projects and deadlines, but by making risk management a priority, contractors can build a sustainable workforce for the long term.
Assessing Risk When Expanding a Construction Company’s Geographic Footprint or Service Area
Before expanding the company’s geographic footprint or industry service offerings, contractors should first consider how new strategies can impact companywide exposure to risk.
