Contract administration and management
Commission building works with a clear process for managing progress and making decisions, supported by independent advice throughout the project.
Discuss your projectKeep your project moving with informed decisions
A repair or refurbishment project involves decisions well beyond choosing a contractor. You need to understand progress, assess proposed changes and keep a useful record of the work.
WHBC supports clients through procurement and delivery. Contract administration manages the procedures set out in the building contract, while wider project support can help with coordination and reporting to the client.
Support throughout the works
- Procurement: develop the work package and assist with obtaining and comparing tenders.
- Progress: carry out planned site visits and report on the works observed.
- Contract decisions: review proposed changes and payment applications within the selected contract procedures.
- Completion: inspect the works at the relevant stage and record items requiring attention.
What you receive
Tender comparisons, site reports and project records give you a clearer view of how the works are progressing. Instructions and payment assessments follow the relevant building contract, supporting an organised record of decisions from commencement through to completion.
Making a decision about additional work
When further deterioration is discovered during refurbishment, the proposed response needs to be understood before a decision is made. Reviewing the work and its cost or programme implications helps the client respond with a clear record of the change.
