Our pre-tender services begin with comprehensive analysis of tender documents, including drawings, specifications, bills of quantities, and contract conditions. We conduct detailed site investigations to identify potential challenges and opportunities that may impact project execution. This includes assessment of site accessibility, existing utilities, soil conditions, and environmental constraints specific to Singapore’s urban environment.
Risk assessment is crucial in Singapore’s construction environment, where projects often involve complex interfaces with existing infrastructure and utilities. Our risk analysis covers technical risks, commercial risks, regulatory compliance risks, and external factors such as weather patterns and supply chain disruptions.
Our services extend beyond tender submission to include post-tender negotiations, clarifications, and contract finalization. We assist clients in responding to tender queries, participating in tender interviews, and negotiating favorable contract terms. For successful bids, we ensure smooth transition from tender to project execution phase through comprehensive handover documentation and briefings.
Effective contract administration is essential for successful project delivery. Our post-contract services include valuation of interim payments, assessment of variations, determination of extension of time claims, and preparation of final accounts. We work closely with project teams to ensure timely and accurate valuations that maintain cash flow while protecting client interests.
Singapore’s construction contracts typically adopt standard forms such as Singapore Institute of Architects (SIA) Conditions of Contract, Public Sector Standard Conditions of Contract (PSSCOC), or REDAS Design and Build Conditions. Our team has extensive experience administering these contract forms, understanding their nuances and applying them fairly to resolve issues that arise during construction.
Contract management in Singapore’s civil and structural engineering sector requires deep understanding of local practices, legal frameworks, and industry standards. The Singapore construction industry operates under a well-developed legal system based on English common law, supplemented by legislation specific to construction such as the Building Control Act and the Security of Payment Act. Our contract management services ensure projects are delivered within this framework while maintaining commercial viability and stakeholder relationships.
The choice of contract form significantly impacts project success. Singapore’s construction industry utilizes various standard forms, each suited to different project types and procurement methods. Our expertise covers the full spectrum of contracts used locally, including Singapore Institute of Architects (SIA) forms, Public Sector Standard Conditions of Contract (PSSCOC), REDAS forms for private residential projects, and international forms like FIDIC for major infrastructure works.
