Document background
The Construction Management At Risk Agreement is utilized in complex construction projects where owners seek to engage a construction manager early in the project lifecycle while maintaining cost certainty. This agreement type, adapted for use under Dutch law and construction regulations, combines traditional construction management services with the risk-bearing responsibility of a general contractor. The construction manager provides pre-construction advisory services and then assumes the risk of delivering the project within a Guaranteed Maximum Price. The document addresses key aspects including risk allocation, payment mechanisms, quality control, and project management procedures, while ensuring compliance with Dutch construction laws, environmental regulations, and safety requirements. It's particularly suitable for large-scale projects where early contractor involvement and sophisticated project management approaches are beneficial.
