Document background
The Cost Plus Contractor Agreement is designed for use in situations where project costs cannot be accurately predetermined or where flexibility in scope is required. This document type is commonly used in Belgium for complex projects in construction, engineering, and other technical sectors. It defines the mechanism for reimbursing the contractor's actual costs plus an agreed fee or percentage markup, while ensuring compliance with Belgian legal requirements. The agreement includes comprehensive provisions for cost verification, project management, quality control, and risk allocation, making it suitable for large-scale or complex projects where traditional fixed-price contracts may not be appropriate. It incorporates specific Belgian jurisdictional requirements, including civil code provisions, tax regulations, and labor laws, while providing a framework for transparent cost management and project execution.
