This document contains the core clauses, the three main option clauses, secondary option clauses and contract data forms. The Guidance Notes place the new Term Service Contract into context with the rest of the NEC suite of documents. They then set out the background to the contract, its provisions and guidance on when and how to use it. The procedure for setting up a contract is covered and explanations are given on the meanings of individual clauses. Worked examples are provided of contract data. Finally appendices cover the clause numbering system, sample form of tender, sample form of agreement, use as a subcontract, form of performance bond and price list. To enable users to understand the operation of the Term Service Contract, this book contains Flow Charts which set out the procedural logic of the 57 clauses that can be presented with benefit by flow charting.
