Proving & Pricing Subcontractor Delay Claims Presented by: James G. Zack, Executive Director, Navigant Construction Forum™ Subcontractors, like general contractors, are frequently impacted by events and actions beyond their control. In addition to the typical risks involved in construction (i.e., changes, differing site conditions, work stoppages, delays, material and craft labor shortages, adverse weather, etc.), subcontractors face other problems also. Subcontractors routinely deal with four sets of problems on every construction project.
