The secret component to a competitive advantage in construction contracting is attracting the best contractors at their best price. Contractors don’t give the same price to an owner or general contractor if the risk profile is different. Studies show that changing just 5 of the most important contract terms can increase prices by 20% and decrease competition.
  
So how do you get better at contracting?
  
(1) Prioritize the most important contact provisions in your contracts and know your go/no-go decision points
(2) Know how to fill in the blanks that address your project specific issues.
(3) Qualify your bid based upon unmodified ConsensusDocs 750 or 751 (short form) subcontract
(4) leverage best practice contract provisions in contract negotiations and learn the one trap that a majority contractors fall into that leads to failure 100% of the time.
(5) Get cutting edge but not bleeding edge by learning about new tools like the ConsensusDocs 755 master subcontract and 756 project work order as well as design-assist addendum and lean addendum. These tools make it easier to negotiate the legal terms once and empower your field folks to negotiate the project specific information.
