Synopsis:
After using the ICE Conditions of Contract for many years on their roads projects the Department of Transport introduced their own Design and Build form of contract. This radical contract, which has been developed from trial contracts in the early 1990�s i.e. A35 Yellowham Hill, is intended to replace the more traditional contract. It is therefore essential for all professionals, from every side of the industry, who will be involved in using this form of contract to have an understanding of its application and the unique features it contains. The purpose of this training course is therefore to study in depth, with delegate participation, the procedures involved in the preparation and administration of a highway project using this form of contract.
