Contract administration

We take a proactive approach to contract administration to mitigate risk and increase value for clients. We provide expert advice and management of various contract forms – including GC21 – working closely with legal advisors to protect your interests and ensure project momentum and compliance. Our strong communication, organisational skills and local contractor knowledge position us to support measurable project outcomes – cost, schedule, quality, safety, environmental and social performance. We have expert training in the administration of the Building and Construction Industry (Security of Payment) Act as applicable to the ACT Government and are aware of the pitfalls that may arise in projects.
