- Abstract:
The current relationships between post-construction liability, insurance, procurement and the concept of sustainable development were the focus of Symposium C at the 1998 CIB Gävle World Building Congress. A number of issues were identified as impacting on procurement: ethical and human rights, higher environmental standards, ecodesign principles, life-cycle implications and performance specification, understanding clients' cultural values. Alternative procurement strategies will be required to incorporate sustainability issues. The impact of environmental and sustainability issues on liability presents increased risks and this results in new forms of insurance coverage for all environmental risks.
