The Construction Subcontract is essential for delegating specialized construction works in Singapore's highly regulated construction industry. This document is used when a main contractor needs to engage specialist contractors for specific aspects of a construction project, such as electrical, mechanical, or structural works. It ensures compliance with Singapore's construction laws, including SOPA and safety regulations, while clearly defining responsibilities, payment terms, and quality standards. The agreement protects both parties' interests while maintaining alignment with the main construction contract and local building codes.
