Construction for Corporations, Businesses, Main

Traditional construction risks such as contract works, public liability, damage to contractors' plant and equipment and the inability to complete a contract continue to be relevant. However, companies in the construction industry need to extend their risk management practices to cover latent defects, environmental liability, project specific professional indemnity, delay in completion of a project, alliance projects, P.P.P. projects, and insurance bonds.
