Reprints of the annual Engineering News-Record (ENR) Surety Supplement, which is developed by Surety Information Office (SIO), now are available to order or download via the SIO website. Reprints are ideal for distributing to your private construction owner contacts and construction clients. In addition to the feature article about the 2010 Surety Market Report and Executive Viewpoints, the Surety Supplement includes the following articles:

• Take Steps Now to Prepare for Better Times
• Alternative Project Financing Methods Create New Risks to Contractors
• Top 10 ‘New’ Risks Contractors Face
• From Soup to Nuts: The Advantages of Using Bonded Contractors and the Surety’s Role in Curing Defaults
• Bond Fraud in a Down Economy

On behalf of SIO, NASBP and the Surety & Fidelity Association of America (SFAA) extend a special thank you to the executives who provided their time and personal insight by responding to our survey questions and who continue to provide financial support through advertising. Without such support, the ENR Surety Supplement would not be as popular and successful as it is year after year.
