Intended for use when contracts are let for maintenance or other building or engineering works where the contract is intended to run for a defined period of time, as opposed to a contract for a defined scope of work. It might also be used for the provision of services (other than design) such as inspection and testing, cleaning, painting, preventative maintenance, repairs, or renewal of components within completed works. When defining the Contract Works, it needs to be made clear what the services are, and whether the Contractor has the exclusive right to provide all such services to the Principal, or whether its right is limited in extent. This new Standard was developed following a ‘limited technical review’ of NZS 3910: 2003, which focused only on feedback from the construction sector, and resulted in clearer wording and a reduced need for extensive special conditions. The Standard includes Word form schedules that may be completed with project specific details.
