Description

The Construction Contract form in Tarrant provides a comprehensive framework for engaging in construction projects in Australia. It outlines critical elements such as the scope of work, work site details, required permits, and insurance obligations. The form emphasizes the contractor's responsibilities while ensuring that the owner is aware of their duties, particularly regarding site conditions and additional work that may incur extra costs. Importantly, the contract allows for changes to the scope of work through formal Change Orders, ensuring transparency in cost adjustments.
