Contract Administration

The Contract Administrator is appointed by the client to administer the building contract between the employer and the contractor.

The Right Approach

At SMD, we believe that once a construction contract is executed, it should be a tool that guides the project smoothly to completion — ideally, it’s a document that’s rarely needed again. However, we recognize that even with the best planning, things can sometimes go off course. That’s why our approach to contract administration is proactive and thorough.

We work closely with our clients to select the procurement route that best aligns with their project’s goals and requirements. Our team will advise on the most suitable construction contracts, providing a comprehensive breakdown of the pros and cons of each. Once a contract is agreed upon, we ensure that it is strictly administered throughout the entire construction process, maintaining focus on compliance and managing risks effectively.

Construction Law

Navigating the legal aspects of a construction contract can be complex, and at SMD, we are here to guide you through every step. Our team offers expert advice on the legal points of the contract and provides guidance on when external legal counsel may be necessary.

With our strong relationships with construction lawyers, we stay informed about the latest legal developments, such as the latest building control changes for High Rise Buildings, and their potential impact on your project. We proactively communicate any relevant legal changes to our clients, ensuring that the project remains compliant and that any legal challenges are effectively managed.
