Event Description

Contracting industries in Canada benefit greatly from having access to standardized contract forms and other documents that assist us in creating agreements with clients and managing those agreements. Along with the Canadian Construction Association, the Canadian Construction Documents Committee creates, revises, and updates numerous documents used by contractors and project owners across Canada.

 

Understanding what each document does and how it works is the key to creating appropriate and written agreements and managing certain project obligations.

 

Between the CCDC and the CCA, some 48 standard documents, forms and guides are available to the industry. The most commonly used of these include documents to create contractual agreements of various types and manage project requirements. Stipulated price agreements, unit price agreements, cost-plus fee agreements, construction management agreements, and design-build agreements are among the most commonly used documents. Forms like statutory declarations required by the contract documents as well as forms for pre-qualification are also available. The CCA specifically handles documents affecting the contractor to sub-contractor relationships while the CCDC documents typically handle contractor-to-owner relationships.

 

This course will provide the participants with a detailed overview of the various forms created by the Canadian Construction Association and the Canadian Construction Documents Committee for use by the industry to assist in forming construction contracts.
