Understanding the Construction Bidding Process

Understand the preparation and submission of bids to maximize the likelihood of bid success and to avoid the many pitfalls.

Join us as we dive into the construction bidding process. Christine D. Barker, a managing partner of Gordon, Rees, Scully, Mansukhani's Orange County office, takes us through the construction bidding process from pre-qualification through false claims. In addition to her 20 years of construction legal experience, Ms. Barker also brings a practical application, having navigated the bidding process for her family's plastering business. Through this presentation, you will gain in-depth knowledge of bid solicitations, submission, and selection, as well as contract formation. We'll also discuss how to qualify for government projects and the challenges to procurement and performance.
