At Abacus, we believe that robust contract administration is a vital element to successful delivery of a construction contract. Appointing a good contract administrator from the outset of a project (something that often gets overlooked) is instrumental to ensuring a client’s requirements are met.

Abacus promotes the early involvement of a skilled practitioner. It’s an effective way to mitigate claims for delay and disruption and will help clarify where extensions of time are applicable, helping to avoid disputes.

Whilst early involvement is the ideal, there are times where a contract is in need of assistance during its lifecycle. At Abacus we have the expertise to create a plan to bring your contract back under control. Once agreed, we can then action it.

“Abacus provided practical expertise in post-contract administration that was instrumental in the delivery of the project on time and within budget.”
