Ask Your Surety Pro – Why Surety Underwriters View Design-Build Contracts Differently

Design-build delivery expands a contractor’s responsibility well beyond construction. And from a surety underwriting perspective, that expanded responsibility changes the risk profile of the project significantly.

In this episode of Ask The Surety Pro, Joe Catania, CEO and Co-Founder of Anderson & Catania, explains why design-build projects are viewed differently by surety underwriters, what factors they focus on when evaluating one, and why understanding exactly what you are agreeing to before signing a design-build contract is so important.

If design-build is on your radar, this episode is worth a few minutes of your time before your next bid.
