Focus of this VOB/B online seminar

Success in construction projects is highly dependent on the quality of the work performed by construction supervisors and project managers. Mistakes are frequently made in the application of the VOB/B because recent case law is not being monitored or observed. This seminar aims to illuminate Germany’s most important regulations with respect to the topics outlined below.

You will gain valuable information on the new developments regarding permissible and impermissible contract clauses on acceptance, claims for defects, final invoices, and the provision of securities. This means you’ll be able to avoid delays in payment.
