Unique Design-build Exposures

Design-build is a project-delivery method that provides an owner with one point of contact for both the design and construction elements of a project. This process has gained popularity in recent years largely due to its simplicity, affordability, and speed. However, it introduces unique risks that firms need to address.

What Are the Unique Risks?

  • Professional Liability: Unlike the traditional design-bid-build method, design-builders are accountable for the accuracy of plans, the execution of construction, and the safety of the job site. This increases the risk of workplace accidents, specification errors, material failures, construction errors, and delays.
  • General Liability Limitations: General liability policies often exclude professional liability exposures. Claims related to preparing blueprints, reports, surveys, field orders, change orders, and other professional services are typically not covered.
  • Increased Liability: Taking on both design and construction roles means inheriting more professional liability, which can lead to severe financial losses if not properly managed.

Professional Liability Insurance

For design-builders, securing professional liability insurance is the most effective way to protect against exposures. These policies provide coverage for claims stemming from actual or alleged acts when performing professional services. Working in conjunction with other policies, professional liability insurance is a critical component of a design-builder’s risk management program.

Coverage Benefits:

  • Claims Coverage: Protection for claims related to preparing blueprints, reports, surveys, specifications, and other professional services.
  • Risk Management: Tailored policies designed to meet the unique needs of design-build firms.
  • Financial Protection: Safeguards against severe financial losses from professional liability claims.

Why Insure Your Construction Business?

Insuring your construction business is essential to protect against the unique risks associated with the design-build process. Specialized insurance coverage helps mitigate these risks, providing financial protection and peace of mind. Without adequate coverage, firms could face significant financial losses from professional liability claims.

It’s a good news, bad news situation. The bad news: Lawsuits, once a measure of last resort, are now commonplace in settling disputes. The good news? You can protect yourself, your business, and your reputation by investing in professional liability coverage, also known as Errors and Omissions (E&O) insurance. E&O insurance is supplementary liability insurance that enhances any business owner’s policy by safeguarding against catastrophic loss in the event of a lawsuit due to a negligent act, error, or omission by the professional. In addition to claims of error, omission, or negligence, E&O insurance can also protect against slander, libel, and breach of contract.
