Using Master Subcontracts: Become More Efficient in Negotiating Subcontracts

Recorded On: 01/16/2020

Learn how many prime contractors and subcontractors have become more efficient in creating a master standard agreement with general terms and conditions and then issue individual work orders for each project or subcontract work scope.

ConsensusDocs just published a new Standard Master Subcontract Agreement and Project Work Order (ConsensusDocs 755 and 756 respectively) that create best practice templates for master subcontracting that prime contractors and subcontractors can use immediately off-the-shelf. Get the information you need to help your contractor and subcontractor clients, and they will not need to continue to waste time repeatedly negotiating the complex legal terms with the same parties.
