Navigating Variations in School Construction: The Role of the School Builder and AISNSW BGA Grants
When embarking on a school construction project, understanding how builders might introduce variations is crucial, especially when working with an school builder or managing a project funded by a BGA Grant.
This blog delves into the common ways variations can occur and how to effectively manage them.
In the context of school building and design, a 'variation' refers to any change from what has been agreed upon in the construction contract.
This is a critical consideration when working with school builders and managing BGA Grant-funded projects.
This approach is beneficial for managing AISNSW school builder projects. The D&C company has a comprehensive understanding of the project, reducing the likelihood of unapproved variations.
Signing a fixed-price lump sum contract with your school builder can help control costs, especially when managing a BGA Grant budget.
Ensure that all parties, including the builder, fully understand the project scope and agreed costs. This is particularly important in school construction projects where compliance with AISNSW BGA Grant terms is required.
Reducing and managing variations is a key aspect of working with an AISNSW school builder and successfully executing a project funded by a BGA Grant.
By ensuring detailed contracts, clear project scopes, and choosing experienced builders, you can significantly reduce the risk of costly and time-consuming variations.
