What is a primary purpose of reviewing plans and specifications with the owner?

  1. To ensure timely payments

  2. To establish a work schedule

  3. To avoid future conflict over plans

  4. To secure additional funding

The correct answer is: To avoid future conflict over plans

The primary purpose of reviewing plans and specifications with the owner is to avoid future conflict over plans. This process ensures that both the contractor and the owner have a clear understanding of the project requirements, expectations, and deliverables right from the start. It fosters communication, allows for any concerns to be addressed immediately, and ensures that both parties are aligned on the project's scope and execution. By clarifying these elements beforehand, the likelihood of misunderstandings, disputes, or changes during the project's progression is significantly reduced, which can lead to smoother project execution and a better relationship between the contractor and the owner.
