CSI has announced its endorsement of the Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee (EJCDC) Construction Series (C-Series) documents.
The move is the most recent in a long series of the institute’s endorsements of EJCDC documents. It follows participation in the C-Series’ development by a CSI-appointed liaison and a thorough review of the 2013 documents by the CSI Technical Committee for alignment with MasterFormat and the institute’s core technical principles.
“On behalf of CSI, I want to express my appreciation for the opportunity afforded by EJCDC to participate in the development of these and other EJCDC documents through the CSI liaisons,” said president Robert W. Simmons, FCSI, CCPR. “We believe this communication and cooperation will only result in better documents for both organizations and the industry at large.”
