CONTRACTS FOR THE SOLAR INDUSTRY


CREATE​ ​EFFECTIVE​ ​TECHNICAL​ ​CONTRACTS

If​ ​you​ ​are​ ​responsible​ ​for​ ​signing​ ​or​ ​writing​ ​construction​ ​contracts,​ ​this​ ​workshop​ ​is​ ​for​ ​you. Most​ ​contracts​ ​are​ ​lacking​ ​clarity​ ​in​ ​technical​ ​details​ ​and​ ​participant​ ​responsibilities,​ ​and​ ​often don’t​ ​address​ ​critical​ ​project​ ​risks​ ​and​ ​variables.​ ​You​ ​need​ ​to​ ​control​ ​construction​ ​costs​ ​and minimize​ ​scope​ ​of​ ​work​ ​issues.​ ​Learn​ ​how​ ​to​ ​improve​ ​your​ ​contracts​ ​and​ ​reduce your​ ​risks​ ​in​ ​this​ ​class.

There has always been risks associated with solar photovoltaic, or any other, construction projects.  Now companies must place more emphasis on specific risks:

  • Workforce Health and Safety

  • Supply Chain uncertainties

  • Schedule interruptions

How do we mitigate all the risks? What are the decisions to make before preparing and signing a construction contract?

This​ ​workshop​ ​focuses​ ​primarily​ ​on​ ​“Construction”​ ​contracts​ ​by​ ​ensuring​ ​project​ ​details,​ ​risks and​ ​variables​ ​are​ ​fully​ ​understood.​ ​Proper​ ​technical​ ​details​ ​and​ ​participant​ ​responsibilities​ ​can become​ ​the​ ​core​ ​of​ ​these​ ​successful​ ​contracts.​ ​The​ ​non​ ​technical,​ ​legal​ ​considerations​ ​are​ ​also introduced,​ ​but​ ​these​ ​require​ ​more​ ​time​ ​than​ ​we​ ​have​ ​in​ ​this​ ​one​ ​day​ ​workshop.​ ​​​Workshop attendees​ ​will​ ​benefit​ ​from​ ​a​ ​sample​ ​template​ ​to​ ​build​ ​their​ ​own​ ​contracts,​ ​plus​ ​contract​ ​planning documents​ ​and​ ​a​ ​copy​ ​of​ ​the​ ​extensive​ ​presentation.

Standard​ ​form​ ​construction​ ​contracts​ ​written​ ​by​ ​legal​ ​experts​ ​are​ ​general​ ​in​ ​nature​ ​and​ ​require technical​ ​and​ ​other​ ​crucial​ ​project​ ​information​ ​to​ ​be​ ​effective.​ ​Make​ ​sure​ ​your​ ​contracts​ ​are​ ​well planned​ ​and​ ​complete,​ ​using​ ​the​ ​process​ ​learned​ ​in​ ​this​ ​workshop.
