In this article, we cover the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contracting model, which is widely used for large-scale infrastructure projects. The appeal of EPC contracts is due to the turnkey approach, which places the responsibility for design, procurement, and construction on a single contractor. An EPC contract aims to streamline project delivery, reduce interfaces, and allocate risk to the party best positioned to manage it. However, the adversarial nature of EPC contracts often leads to significant challenges and disputes, impacting project success. https://bit.ly/3WZUIs2 #constructionlaw #constructioncontracts #epccontracts
