Description

The Construction Contract in Minnesota outlines various types of construction contracts, particularly focusing on the cost-plus model. This model requires the owner to pay the contractor for actual construction costs plus an additional fee for services. Key features of the contract include a detailed scope of work, identification of the work site, permitting responsibilities, and liability for soil conditions. The contract also covers necessary insurance requirements, boundary surveys, and procedures for changes in the scope of work through written change orders. It specifies payment terms, including late payment penalties, and provides a warranty period for workmanship. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, as it serves as a foundational document for construction projects, ensuring legal compliance and clarity of responsibilities. By using this form, users can avoid potential disputes by clearly defining the financial obligations and responsibilities of both parties involved.
