Two new versions of the Infrastructure Conditions of Contract (ICC) are now available to purchase. The target cost and design and construct versions of the contracts have been updated for 2018.

The new contracts are more concise, easier to read and follow a more logical sequence. They now include early warning measures and encourage mutual trust and cooperation within the legal text.  In addition, these contracts have been future-proofed, accommodating issues such as BIM in a flexible way which will ensure the contract remains relevant no matter the level of BIM maturity. The target cost contract comes with an accompanying set of guidance notes with worked examples.

These new versions will not feel unfamiliar to existing ICC users who will be pleased to know that the core clauses remain unchanged from the with quantities version published in 2014, and it still provides the flexibility to deal with a number of different situations.

ICC contracts are a cost-effective way to create a professional and flexible environment for those working to deliver infrastructure projects.

These new versions, as well as the full-suite of existing ICC contracts, are available to purchase now.
