Launched in 1993, the New Engineering Contract (NEC) has become one of the UK’s leading standard forms of contract for major construction and civil engineering projects. The third edition, popularly known as NEC 3, is a process based contract embodying project management best practice, so the basic philosophy behind the contract differs from the more adversarial principles and approach of other standard construction contracts.
Written as a practical guide to the application of the procedures contained in NEC 3 and issues that arise as a result of that application, this book will aid users in the transition from their use and understanding of the other standard construction contracts to the collaborative project management based approach of the ECC.
Practical Guide to the NEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract will be useful to everyone in the construction industry working on a project under the ECC. It will be of interest to the complete construction supply chain, including employers, construction professions, contractors and sub-contractors, as well as consultants and lawyers advising any of these parties, either in the preparation of contract documentation or the resolution of problem situations which may arise.
