The Construction Management Agency Contract is specifically designed for use in the South African construction industry where a Principal/Employer requires professional construction management services delivered through an agency arrangement. This contract type is particularly suitable for complex projects requiring sophisticated project management and coordination of multiple stakeholders. It comprehensively addresses the unique aspects of South African construction law, including compliance with the Construction Industry Development Board Act, Occupational Health and Safety regulations, and B-BBEE requirements. The document establishes clear lines of authority, risk allocation, and professional responsibilities while providing flexibility for various project types and scales. It differs from traditional construction contracts in that the Construction Manager acts as the Principal's agent rather than taking on direct construction responsibilities, focusing on project management, coordination, and oversight of the construction process.
