"Procurement and Supply Contracts in the Construction Industry"

6 December 2007

Simon Tolson, in a paper given at the Procurement in Construction Law Conference organised by Butterworths, discusses the various procurement and tendering options available on construction projects. He sets out some of the potential traps for the unwary and provides practical advice on the best ways to avoid those traps. Amongst the issues Simon considers are the difference between a tender and an estimate, problems with traditional tendering processes, good faith in tendering, and the impact of EU legislation.
