Description

Book Synopsis

This book is an introduction to construction contract administration and management, covering the delivery and execution stage of a construction project and the various issues which the contract administrator needs to proactively manage. It can therefore be used as a contract administrator's resource book covering what needs to be done (and why) to keep a construction project on track from a commercial and contractual perspective. It is particularly appropriate for students and new practitioners from varied construction professions and whilst it covers domestic (UK) projects, it will be particularly useful for those studying and working on international projects where terminology, procedures and legal systems may differ from the UK.

The content is split into four parts and is subdivided into easy-to-read chapters replicating the timeline of a project during the construction stage:

  • Part A covers initiating the construction stage, project delivery mechanism
