Most construction contracts for major projects and almost all contracts with public entities will require performance bonds and payment bonds.

Most design professionals are not structured financially to have the necessary financial assets to induce a Surety Company to provide bonding for a design firm.

Also one of the main functions of a performance bond is to “Warrant” their construction work product. A very common misconception is that bonds are the same as “insurance”. Bonds are not “insurance”.

Any payment made on behalf of the Principal named in the Bond for failure to perform is subject to a recovery action against the bonded entity by the bonding company.
