Interactive Workshop
Managing Utility Risk from Planning Through Construction: The Anatomy of a Change Order


Utility conflicts remain one of the leading causes of schedule delays, cost overruns, and change orders on infrastructure projects. This interactive workshop provides practical strategies to identify, manage, and mitigate utility-related risks from project planning through construction. Through real-world case studies, lessons learned, and industry best practices, participants will gain a deeper understanding of utility risk management and the role of proactive investigations in improving project outcomes.

Attendees will learn how to apply key industry standards, recognize the common causes of utility conflicts, develop effective risk mitigation strategies, and build the business case for early utility investigations, including Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). Participants will leave with actionable tools to reduce uncertainty, improve project certainty, and minimize costly impacts to budgets, schedules, stakeholders, and the public.
