In its efforts to drive the adoption of collaborative contracting in Singapore, the Building and Construction Authority (“BCA”) announced on 29 April 2024 the launch of the NEC4 contract for construction and engineering projects in Singapore by way of a set of NEC4 Y (SG) clauses to align the NEC4 contract with Singapore’s laws.

Join us for a webinar where our speakers will explore how NEC4 contracts promote collaboration, facilitate effective risk management and provide insights on developing and implementing them successfully. The webinar will focus on the key features of the NEC4, tips for getting started, common mistakes and pitfalls to avoid and best practices in running successful early warning meetings. The speakers will also share case studies from outside Singapore and recent legal developments on the NEC, as well as examine their practical implications.
