Golden Thread Fire Delay’s Post

Looking forward to speaking next week on some of the environmental considerations of plastics in construction materials. Come for the product failures and liability discussion, and maybe learn a little bit about plastic pollution while you're here! :)

CFMA Staci Bradley - Thank you for another great CFMA event! CoFi loves these events where we are surrounded by other-like minds in construction. CoFi's Takeaways: -- Lien Waivers are still annoying to manage HOWEVER are essential to protecting all parties involved. -- Most folks did NOT know that Lien Waiver laws and thus wording vary by region. -- More folks are open to the idea of capturing their inspections digitally (via camera or drone), as long as the person QCing it is trained. -- For larger-sized GCs, the problem is where to put cash. -- Getting subs, suppliers, and vendors paid quickly is STILL a focus. CoFi will continue in its mission to make construction predictable, safe, and fast for all parties involved. It was a pleasure meeting everyone! Safe to say that Andrew Poulsen and Stephen Wily influenced some other folks to purchase a cowboy hat out here! #Construction #construcitonfinance #constructionservicing #projectreviews #builderreviews #fundscontrol #lienwaviers #CFMA

In the May issue of Dispatch, partner Jeremy Glover looks at conflicting payment schedule provisions and issues relating to the agreement of contracts. ▪️ Tyson International Company Ltd v Partner Reinsurance Europe SE: Had the second contract superseded the first? Or in the words of the Court of Appeal: had the parties begun “by playing cricket but then switched to baseball?” ▪️ Morganstone Ltd v Birkemp Ltd: When the agreed payment schedule came to an end, should you then follow the original contractual timetable? What was the effect of the adjudicator failing to address cross-claims raised by the Responding Party?
