The conditions of contract

How work is priced and assessed for payment

Clause 11 in NEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract, April 2013 (ECC3) Option A states:

Identified and 11

defined terms 11.2 (20) The Activity Schedule is the activity schedule unless later changed in

accordance with this contract.

(22) Defined Cost is the cost of the components in the Shorter Schedule of

Cost Components whether work is subcontracted or not excluding the cost of

preparing quotations for compensation events.

(27) The Price for Work Done to Date is the total of the Prices for

each group of completed activities and

each completed activity which is not in a group.

A completed activity is one which is without Defects which would either delay

or be covered by immediately following work.

(30) The Prices are the lump sum prices for each of the activities on the Activity

Schedule unless later changed in accordance with this contract.

Option A is a lump sum form of contract where the work is broken down into activities, each of which is

priced by the tendering contractor as a lump sum. Only completed activities are assessed for

payment at each assessment date; no part payment is made if the activity is not completed by the

assessment date. Function of the Activity Schedule

Clause 54.1 in Option A states: “Information in the Activity Schedule is not Works Information or Site

Information”. This confirms that instructions to do work or how it is to be done are not included in the Activity

Schedule but in the Works Information. This is further confirmed by Clause 20.1 which states, “The Contractor

Provides the Works in accordance with the Works Information”. Hence the Contractor does not Provide the

Works in accordance with the Activity Schedule. The Activity Schedule is only a pricing document.

Link to the programme

Clause 31.4 states that “The Contractor provides information which shows how each activity on the Activity

Schedule relates to the operations on each programme which he submits for acceptance”. Hence when

compiling the activity schedule, the tendering contractor needs to show each activity on the programme he

submits with his tender.

Preparing the activity schedule

The tendering contractor prepares the activity schedule and should study the ECC3 Guidance Notes pages

19 and 20 before doing so. The Employer may have instructed the tendering contractor to include particular

activities which he has specified and requires the Contractor to identify them in his activity schedule.

1 Generally it is the Contractor who prepares the Activity Schedule as part of his tender by breaking down

the work described within the Works Information into suitable activities which can be well defined, priced as

a lump sum and shown on the programme. The Employer, in his Conditions of Tender or in a Tender

Part c2: pricing data c2.1 ECC3/A pricing assumptions

Airports company south africa soc limited contract NO. _________

Project & contract title

Schedule, may have listed some items that he requires the Contractor to include in his activity schedule and

be priced accordingly.

2 The Prices are defined in clause 11.2(20) as the lump sum for each activity in the activity schedule and

the Price for Work Done to Date (PWDD) (the amount due to the contractor) is defined in clause 11.2(24)

as the total of the Prices for each activity that has been completed. Hence activities in the activity schedule

should be structured so as to provide an acceptable monthly cash flow as they are only assessed for

payment on the assessment date if they have been completed.

3 As the Contractor has an obligation to correct Defects (core clause 43.1) and there is no compensation

event for this unless the Defect was due to an Employer’s risk, the lump sum Prices must also include for

the correction of Defects.

4 If the Contractor has decided not to identify a particular activity, the cost to the Contractor of doing the

work must be included in, or spread across, the other Prices in order to fulfil the obligation to complete the

works for the tendered total of the Prices.

5 There is no adjustment to the lump sum activity schedule price if the amount, or quantity, of work within

that activity later turns out to be different to that which the contractor estimated at time of tender. The only

basis for a change to the Prices is as a result of a compensation event. See Clause 60.1.

6 Hence the Prices tendered by the Contractor in the activity schedule are inclusive of everything

necessary and incidental to Providing the Works in accordance with the Works Information, as it was at the

time of tender, as well as correct any Defects not caused by an Employer’s risk.

7 However, the Contractor does not have to allow in his Prices for matters that may arise as a result of a

compensation event. It should be noted that the list of compensation events includes those arising as a

result of an Employer's risk event listed in core clause 80.1.
