FALLS CHURCH, Va. - Speaker George Hedley will lead a discussion titled "Everything Subcontractors Need to Know about General Contractors - Learn How They Really Work!" during the keynote presentation at the Construction Contractors' Alliance (CCA) meeting, Feb. 16-18, 2005, in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
Hedley will provide the ins and outs of the new construction contracting business from a general contractor's/builder's perspective. He'll show how the preliminary project budget is established, how the architect and owner interact with the builder, and how the different types of contracts and project financing work. Participants also will walk through the preconstruction phase, estimating, bidding, reviewing bids, negotiating, and awarding subcontracts.
