Standard contract provisions roads (vol. 3): minor works contract
Minor Works Contract System (MW) - Third Edition, March 2003.
This document provides information to deal with open market contracts using open tender and quotations processes and also a performance based version for use in sole invitee contracts with RoadTek and local government. Relationship management continues to be a feature in this document.
The Conditions of Contract that applies to this contract is the AS 4905 - 2002 Minor Works Contract Conditions published by Standards Australia except where supplemented by the Supplementary Conditions of Contract (form C6996) and Annexure to Contract Conditions - Minor Works (form C6994).
Tenderers are expected to obtain their own copy of AS 4905 - 2002 Minor Works Contract Conditions from Standards Australia as it is not included in this document.
The system associated with open market contracts is termed in this document as ‘Minor Works’. The system for sole invitee contracts is termed ‘Minor Works Performance Contract’. Several forms are attached in the document for the use in Minor Works contracts. Some of these forms are common for both open market and sole invitee contracts. However, these forms were developed mainly for open market contracts. In order to make this user guide short and simple, no specific forms were developed for sole invitee situations, unless they were extremely necessary. Therefore, some parts of these forms may not be applicable when the contractor is either Local Government or RoadTek. In such situations, users are encouraged to fill these parts as not applicable. Those forms which are not common to both types can easily be identified by their extensions to form numbers. The extension “.MW” is used for open market contracts to denote Minor Works and “.MWPC” for sole invitee to denote Minor Works Performance Contracts.
Forms on this site have been arranged by part. Individual forms can be found by form title or form number using the search facility. These forms are supplied as an Adobe Acrobat PDF and Microsoft Word format. The Acrobat PDF version may be printed as a master reference, while the MS Word version may be down loaded and filled in electronically.
