THE FACTS!!!
Homeowners are afraid the greedy contractor will steal their money and never complete the job!
Architects are fearful the contractor will dominate the client relationship and they will lose control of everything.
Contractors are afraid they will lose their shirts if they don't carefully manage both parties through a very tricky and stressful process filled with opportunities for misunderstanding, miscommunication, problems, and mistakes, and liability.
NARI is a beacon of hope with promises of Ethics, Professionalism, and Education.
Despite the myth that Architects and General Contractor's often butt heads on projects, there can actually be another side to the story! In this dynamic and engaging discussion, you will hear how three top Contractors and Architects discuss how to work best as a TEAM!
The format will be three Architects presenting what they need from contractors and then three contractors presenting the same; followed by a question and answer session. The focus of this panel is to reach consensus on how working as team Contractors and Architects can overcome the obstacles that historically cause problems and ultimately unhappy clients.
Attend and find out...
How successful Contractors and Architects can forge successful relationships
What the key is to good communication between the two
What Contractors and Architects are each looking for that constitutes a good team
Approach for successful projects and happy clients
It promises to be an insightful evening!
