EPC Contracts

EPC (Engineer, Procure and Construct) contracts are a world of their own. EPC contracts are commonly used for highly complex construction projects. The EPC contract is the project delivery method of choice for owners of many major industrial facilities such as power plants, ethanol plants, manufacturing facilities and other process plants. The EPC method of project delivery can have substantial benefits for all involved, but it also involves tremendous risk and complexity. The capital cost of these projects can run into the hundreds of millions, or even billions, of dollars. The benefits of a properly structured and managed project can be enormous. Projects can collapse in chaos when the EPC contract is not matched with other major contracts. The immense financial stakes and the specialized world of EPC contracting require counsel with substantial EPC experience. Sherman & Howard attorneys have extensive experience in all types of EPC contracts.  Our clients can be secure in the knowledge that their EPC projects are being handled by counsel with a wealth of experience in this unique approach to project delivery.
