"This book provides its readers with an overview of the construction project, offering a step-by-step primer to understand how the construction project flows from the initial design until the final project "close-out." It focuses on the contractual aspects of the construction project - the paperwork, the process and the unique terms encountered in the project-related documents. The objective of this book is to provide its reader a clearer understanding of the people and paperwork involved in a bonded construction project, which may serve as a handy resource for anyone approaching a construction project for the first time." --
