NEC4: Introducción al Contrato de Ingeniería y Construcción (Introduction ECC, LATAM Spanish)
A comprehensive overview of the NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC), breaking down its key components for new users.
Background
The NEC4 Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC) has been developed for the appointment of a contractor for engineering and construction project work, including any level of design responsibility.
It provides a modern method for clients, designers, contractors and project managers to work collaboratively to consistently achieve their objectives. People will be motivated to play their part in collaborative management if it is in their commercial and professional interest to do so.
Uncertainty about what is to be done and the corresponding risks and liabilities can lead to disputes and confrontation. The ECC clearly allocates risks, and the collaborative approach will reduce those risks and uncertainty for all the parties.
