Description

Payment in the Construction Industry is a problem. This creates problems for both the Owner and the Contractor as well as the other participants involved with the project (Consultant, Subcontractors, Sub-Subcontractors and Suppliers). 

The Canadian Construction Documents Committee (CCDC) and the Canadian Construction Association (CCA) publish standard contracts and guides for the Construction Industry. 

In this half-day workshop, the Payment Process in Standard Contracts (CCDC-2 Stipulated Price Contract, CCA-1 Stipulated Price Subcontract, CCA-19 Stipulated Price Sub-Subcontract) will be reviewed along with the contract language from non-standard contracts which can delay payment. 

It is important to recognize when your client is trying to work language into the contract which delays payment (Pay-if-Paid, Pay-when-Paid, “Notwithstanding” clauses). 

Guides covered by the course: 

  • CCA 28 – A Guide to Improving Cash Flow in the Construction Industry. 

  • CCA 50 – A Prime Contractors Guide to Project Financing and Payment Security. 

  • CCA 53 – Trade Contractors Guide and Checklist to Construction Contracts. 

  • CCA Banking Guide for the Canadian Construction Association. 

  • CCDC 12 – Project Financial Information Disclosure Form. 

 

Delivery Method:  Virtual Session - GoToTraining Platform.  

Course Fee Includes: Access to the course, course materials, and a digital certificate upon completion. 

 

This course is delivered in partnership with local and provincial construction associations across Canada. You will be participating with a group of industry peers from multiple regions. 

Sharing a single registration between two or more individuals is not permitted. Please register each person that will be in attendance.

  1. Webcam (Mandatory)– in order to engage and collaborate, participants will be expected to have their webcams on for the duration of the class

Ideally hardwired connection versus wireless for stability - connect your computer directly to your router using an ethernet cable, rather than using your home wi-fi.
