Division 10 Lunch

January 16, 2025

12: 40 PM - 2:15 PM ET

Presentation Topic: Unique Challenges of Contractors and Government Agencies in the Transportation Sector

Panelists: Kelsey Meany, Legal Director & Senior Counsel at Clark Construction Group and Ira Libanoff, Partner at Hinckley Allen

Moderator: Lexie Pereira, Associate at Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pitman LLP

With increasing investment in transportation infrastructure, effectively managing government contracts is critical to ensure timely, compliant, and cost-effective project delivery.   Our expert panelists will discuss practical strategies and key considerations to address common contract issues, compliance hurdles, evolving regulatory landscapes and risk management.

 Participants will engage in a hands-on learning experience where they’ll work through a real-world scenario: a delayed highway expansion project impacted by unforeseen environmental requirements and labor shortages. In small groups, attendees will navigate contract modifications, assess risk allocation, and explore compliance solutions to bring the project back on-track. This interactive exercise is designed to help participants apply best practices to collaboratively resolve contract challenges in complex infrastructure projects. Whether you're a contractor, legal professional, or government official, join us for an insightful and immersive session to build practical skills in managing transportation infrastructure contracts.
