“The best way to approach risk management in automation is to treat such projects as a very specialized type of construction project.” So observes author Mark Voigtmann in the opening pages of this concise but insightful book which sets as its goal nothing less than bridging the gap between the legal profession and those who work in the automation, robotics, and process industries. Among the topics covered:

  • The Dirty Dozen Contract Clauses
  • Automation Standards
  • Specifications
  • Intellectual Property
  • Professional Licensing
  • Insurance
