Approval of LUF Form of Construction Contract
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Purpose:
The County Council needs to consider the most
appropriate form of construction contract for the engagement of a
contractor for the delivery of projects in the East Lancashire
Levelling Up Fund Programme. These projects have budgets generally
in the region of £1.5M to £5M with construction periods
in the order of 12 months. The projects are currently at detail
design stage and it is intended that a fully detailed client design
will be developed. The majority of schemes of this nature are
delivered nationally through a form of contract contained with the
New Engineering Contract (NEC4) suite of documents. NEC4 is a
modern contract, with options that offer varying degrees of risk to
both the client and contractor.
Decision:
Andy Mullaney, Director of Environment and Planning approved the NEC4 Option A, Priced Contract with Activity Schedule as the form of construction contract for the engagement of a contractor for the delivery of projects in the East Lancashire Levelling Up Fund Programme.
