Construction Manager At Risk: Benefits and Words to the Wise

As many owners and contractors seek to enhance the construction experience by considering different project-delivery methods, they are opting for construction manager at risk (CMAR), which provides opportunities for improved collaboration, but as the name states, also comes with risks to be managed.
