Description

The Construction Contract form outlines a cost-plus agreement for construction projects in the Bronx, designed to safeguard both the contractor and the owner during the construction process. This form serves as a framework for defining the scope of work, work site, permits, soil conditions, insurance, and changes to the project's scope. Key features include the contractor's responsibility to acquire necessary permits and insurance while maintaining a clear line of communication with the owner regarding potential changes and the associated costs. Filling out the form involves specifying the actual costs of materials plus a contractor fee, which can be negotiated in the cost-plus structure. Specific use cases relevant to attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants include ensuring compliance with local regulations, facilitating cost management, and managing disputes related to contract changes or payment delays. The form is particularly useful in adapting to unforeseen costs related to soil conditions and providing clarity on responsibilities, thereby minimizing liabilities for both parties.
