Including Construction Services Clause Samples
The 'Including Construction Services' clause defines that the agreement covers not only the supply of materials or goods but also the provision of construction-related services. This means that the contractor or service provider is responsible for tasks such as installation, assembly, or on-site construction work in addition to delivering products. For example, a contract for building a facility may specify that the supplier must also handle the actual construction or setup. The core function of this clause is to clarify the scope of work, ensuring both parties understand that construction services are part of the contractual obligations, thereby reducing ambiguity and potential disputes over responsibilities.
