VERTEX was retained by two insurance carriers to provide expert analysis and testimony in defense of a General Contractor for the construction of a new 60,000+ SF beverage warehouse/distribution facility in upstate New York. The building owner filed a multi-million-dollar claim due to alleged defects in their new facility.

Aspects of the project analyzed included pre-fabricated metal building systems, various roofing and wall cladding systems, structural steel, concrete floor slabs, loading docks, HVAC systems, stormwater management, and site improvements.
The analysis and testimony provide by VERTEX’s team of experts resulted in an overall favorable decision in arbitration for the General Contractor.
