Description

The Contract Cost Plus Form with Decimals in Minnesota is designed for construction contracts where compensation is based on the actual costs incurred plus an additional fee. This form clearly outlines the scope of work, work site, permits required, and conditions regarding soil at the work site, which helps avoid misunderstandings between the contractor and the owner. Users must provide detailed specifications of the project, ensuring compliance with local regulations and permitting requirements. The form emphasizes the importance of obtaining a boundary survey and title opinion before construction begins. Changes to the scope of work can occur, but they must be documented through written change orders which also dictate cost implications. The contract includes specific payment terms, including provisions for late fees and warranty limitations. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in construction law, providing clear guidelines on contractor obligations and owner rights. It facilitates clarity and reduces disputes, making it a reliable tool in contract management and enforcement.
