Risks of Design Team Novation
What are the risks to architects and how can these be managed when your contract is novated to a design-build contractor?
Design and build projects and the novation of appointments from the client to the contractor are increasingly prevalent in the construction industry. Join the AIA UK and our colleagues at Beale & Company Solicitors on Wednesday, April 15th for a presentation and discussion about novation. This presentation will focus specifically on design and build projects and the issues to be considered when negotiating novation agreements.
This discussion is the fourth in our series on legal matters of interest (and concern) to architects and will:
• Provide an introduction to novation
• Identify the risks arising from novation
• Discuss different approaches to novation
• Highlight key issues in novation agreements, and
• Discuss practical issues associated with novation
The presentation will be followed by a question and answer session where the speakers will address all of your questions.
