Construction Joint Ventures: Benefits and Pitfalls

• Overview
• Agenda
• Faculty
• Credits

Construction joint ventures, properly conceived and implemented, enhance the marketing opportunities and organizational assets of the individual joint venturers thereby enabling the joint venture to obtain and successfully complete larger more complex projects than those the joint venturers could undertake individually. Construction joint ventures are excellent vehicles for combining various disciplines for a particular project and for including MBE, WBE and DBE participation. But, ill conceived or poorly implemented joint ventures can be disastrous for the project and potentially fatal for one or more of the individual joint venturers. This teleconference focuses on best practices for the formation, structure and on-going governance of joint ventures, and emphasizes the decisions and safeguards that minimize the possibility of joint venture disasters.
