Periodically
CEBC members choose to bid on projects only to discover that clients
make demands that are not in the best interest of the consulting engineering
industry. Once aware of these, CEBC members can take a unified approach
to strengthen our position on contract language and selection criteria.
Watch
this section to learn from your colleagues and competitors within
the CEBC membership, of such demands. The CEBC Executive Committee
and Board will develop position statements on many of these, and
post them here. “Newsflash” items will appear here as
well as in your Inbox.
To
keep this section current, be sure to let the CEBC Secretariat know
of any terms you want your colleagues to also know about. This section
will also include current and archived media releases.
