WPL Publishing Co. welcomes the launch of its new Beta site Construction Advisor Today (ConstructionAdvisorToday.com), a complimentary online news source that will share commentary and provide news and insight as it relates to construction law, green building, project controls, building information modeling (BIM), scheduling and more.

"By leveraging the editorial excellence of Construction Claims Advisor, we believe Construction Advisor Today will become an important information service to organizations making increasingly larger bets -- especially with the economic stimulus flow and fluctuations in the stock market," said Paul Levin, president of WPL Publishing.

Construction Advisor Today's unique coverage is developed by experienced writers and industry experts who know the construction market and AEC industry. In addition, readers will receive weekly commentary provided by Bruce Jervis, Esq., editor of Construction Claims Advisor and licensed attorney with more than 30 years of experience in the construction law field. These legal insights, combined with articles from guest columnists, are bundled into a one-stop online news source specifically for legal counsel, construction business owners, contractors, builders, designers, architects, consultants, mediators and other industry professionals.

In addition to online access to coverage of national construction industry news, weekly e-mail updates, full archive access and breaking news alerts, new subscribers to Construction Advisor Today will receive a complimentary white paper, The Economic Stimulus Plan and the Construction Industry. This exclusive 21-page construction-centric guide, produced by Akerman Senterfitt attorneys Brian P. Waagner and James D. Coleman, LEED-AP, provides insight on how the 2009 $787 billion economic stimulus package will translate into actual contract opportunities and how to identify which projects are "shovel ready."
