The Construction Contract Administration Knowledge Community (CCA) has been established to help our members better understand the issues, actions and resultant impact of the decisions required in this often neglected part of Project Delivery. It is our goal to provide clear answers to issues of concern to the Institute’s membership and share case studies and best practices. We further hope to provide guidance and direction in developing guidelines for new and evolving approaches to Project Delivery as well as guidance in the continuing education of our emerging young professionals.

This is the first in a series of articles, which span a range of topics related to our involvement in the construction environment today from the ground level perspective. The series is about connecting problems and solutions, foxhole and phalanx, as well as choices we have about our position within the construction environment. The notion of foxhole or phalanx starts and ends with individual choice. The mindset that we all choose as our professional approach within any situation influences our team (and firm) dynamic. How do we best operate in current and future construction environments? How can we maintain or regain control of our own destiny in the work and break cycles of seemingly intractable circumstances in which we find and create for ourselves? What are the changes transpiring in the industry that will influence our work? Cautionary tales and proactive solutions are useful, indeed necessary, for learning and improvement at all levels: individual, team, leadership and as a profession. There is much we can do to positively change our position if we are willing to recognize, act and make the right choices.#ConstructionContractAdministration #Articles #SpecialProjects #ProjectDeliveryKnowledgeCommunity
