CONTRACTOR SELECTION & CONTRACT NEGOTIATION PARTICIPATION.

When it comes to your contractor selection, you want a “cool poker player” at the table, who is expert at maintaining calmness and objectivity, while he plays your cards to your maximum advantage. As “long-distance runners” who have seen it all over the years, who recognize every trick and bluff in the book, and who are aware the precise language which signifies a willingness to fulfill the obligations you have set out in your specifications, we can bring a lot of value to the table in the process of Contractor Selection & Negotiations. Perhaps more importantly, we can assure that binding legal commitments with teeth in them are made from the beginning to guarantee absolute compliance with your plans and timetables, avoiding the severe problem areas of later re-negotiation, arbitration, or litigation. RDS will provide you with our recommendations for a methodology in analyzing the submitted bids, on an “apples to apples” basis, to prepare you with a proper basis for final negotiations and selections. Once the bids are in, and finalists are chosen, we will act as your personal representative in working with your counsel to oversee contract negotiations. Here, we can “clean up” wording, fully define commitments, and apply value engineering principles to the bids to wrest the maximum advantage for you at the time of maximum leverage.
