ARLINGTON, Va. - The Air Conditioning Contractors of America
(ACCA) announced that it has joined the ConsensusDOCS Coalition. ConsensusDOCS
is a coalition of 33 design and construction industry associations that creates
standard contract documents designed to be fair for all participants in the
construction industry.
As a member of the coalition, ACCA now has the opportunity to
provide input and feedback into the creation and updates of the contracts that
are available through ConsensusDOCS. ACCA members also receive a 20 percent
discount when purchasing the documents.
“ACCA joined ConsensusDOCS to give our members access to a large
number of contracts that have been created and reviewed by experts in the
construction industry to make them fair for all parties involved,” said Hilary
Atkins, ACCA’s general counsel, and senior vice president of finance &
administration. “While each of these documents should be reviewed by the
contractor and their legal counsel before using them, this library gives
contractors a solid starting point to work from, making the process easier.”
