JCT 2016 Edition

The JCT 2016 Edition refers to a standard contract issued by the Joint Contracts Tribunal, commonly used in the UK construction industry. It provides a clear legal framework outlining the roles, responsibilities, and procedures for parties involved in building projects, including clients, contractors, and consultants. The contract aims to manage risks, clarify payment terms, and ensure projects are completed correctly and on time. Overall, it helps reduce misunderstandings and disputes by setting agreed-upon rules and processes for construction work, making project management more transparent and organized.
