Abstract:

This paper examines the issues or flaws in the contracting system. The flaws may be arise either by contractor mistake or the client mistake. But in this paper it overviews all the possible flaws which leads to inefficiency in contract system and postponing completion time of a project. After analysing the flaws in the contract system appropriate recommendations are proposed to reduce flaws and even proposing flawless model in contract system. Most importantly, in the case of a construction contract, it requires the contractor to build the works and requires the employer to pay for them. The analysis have identified several factors responsible for excess time and cost overruns some within the control of the management and some beyond their control. This paper aims to identify key problems in certain critical areas of a construction project.
