The CIC Consultants’ Contract Conditions is the new contract from the Construction Industry Council. It can be used by either employers or design and build contractors and any discipline of consultant. The contract has been drafted with the aim of striking a fair balance between the interests of the client and the consultant. Where the CIC Consultants’ Contract is used on a project, it should be used for the appointment of all the consultants. This will mean that all team members are subject to consistent terms, will owe the same duty of care and will be under similar obligations in respect of co-operation, sharing of information, co-ordination of design and the like. Vitally, the services they provide are fully integrated. The contract is designed to be flexible enough to fit a range of construction procurement methods, including traditional, design and build, and construction management.
