The fabrication of an asset, real estate or civil works is a major project quite susceptible to abrupt design modifications, cost and safety risks, setbacks due to permits, new developments in operating personnel and an almost endless list of conditioning factors. The numerous deficits that are evident in many of the urban projects in the architectural field (infrastructure failures, cost overruns, etc.), are mostly due to contractual shortcomings and lack of follow-up in the execution derived from the initial agreement.
