OverviewThis construction project management training discusses the genesis of RFIs and their development and discusses the impact of RFIs on construction projects, drawing upon data provided by ACONEX and other studies to assess how RFIs and the RFI processes impact both small large scale construction projects. It will also addresses the abuse of the RFI process examining how some contractors misuse RFIs to increase profitability, a practice that has become somewhat institutionalized in the past decade. The speaker discusses a claim case study involving a laboratory building at wastewater treatment facility to illustrate how the process can be abused and examines the legal arguments for cumulative impact as a result of a large quantity of RFIs. The webinar will also explain how owners inadvertently contribute to the abuse of RFIs by failing to adopt practices that may contractually safeguard against the potential negative impacts of the RFI process and sets forth a framework for reducing the impact of RFIs that consists of three principal recommendations: the incorporation of critical definitions and an RFI control specification; electronic RFI tracking and monitoring RFIs; and sets forth best management practices concerning RFIs that owners and contractors can adopt and implement for managing the RFI process.Why Should You AttendLearn about how the RFI process can be abused and used as the basis of claims.Learn how to mitigate the adverse impact of RFIs through contractual mechanisms.Understand the value of an electronic RFI tracking and monitoring system.Understand the best management practices concerning RFIs and the RFI process.Areas Covered in this WebinarLearn how the RFI process came about and is intended to be used in the construction industry.Better understand the impact of RFIs on construction projects based on data from approximately 1,400 projects including the average time and cost to review and respond to an RFI.
