  11. Great stuff very informative. I would love to find out which construction company is specialized in constructing a sports complex as non of the mentioned above have hinted in that direction.
    Thank you.

  12. This was a wonderful informative post you have shared on this page about the professional indemnity insurance for a construction company but In those days, the employer engaged a team of professional designers and presented the plans and specifications to the contractor to build.During this regime, responsibility was clearer than it has been at any time since and although the contractor often provided “ad hoc” advice on site, design responsibility was left fairly and squarely with the professional design team. these are the reason for a delay of your project ,You please understand this kind of matter during a construction of a building otherwise you may have loose due to inexperience of employees .
    Thanks.
