Document background
The Nominated Subcontractor Contract is a specialized agreement used in UAE construction projects where the Employer has specifically selected a subcontractor for specialized works, but wishes to maintain the contractual hierarchy through the Main Contractor. This document type is particularly important in projects requiring specialized expertise or proprietary systems, common in the UAE's sophisticated construction market. The contract ensures compliance with UAE Federal Laws, including the Civil Code and Commercial Code, while establishing clear responsibilities, payment terms, and quality requirements. It includes provisions for advance payments, interim payments, and retention common in UAE construction practices, along with specific requirements for performance bonds and insurance. The document is structured to protect all parties' interests while maintaining alignment with the main construction contract and UAE regulatory requirements.
