Description

The Contract Cost Plus Form for Contract in Harris is a vital document used in construction agreements where the owner compensates the contractor for actual costs incurred, plus a predetermined fee. Key features include a detailed scope of work, specification of work site, permit responsibilities, and provisions regarding soil conditions. The form also outlines the insurance requirements for the contractor and mandates the provision of necessary surveys and title opinions by the owner.
