MEASUREMENT
CONTRACT
 Before the
completion of the
project, the contract
amount of the
measurement contract
will not be finalized,
and will be reassessed
based on the
previously agreed
basis.
 This type of contract
may occur when the
contractor's work
cannot be accurately
measured before
bidding.
 Normally, the design
will be reasonably
complete, and bidders
can get accurate
quality instructions.
 This type of contract
with the least risk to
the customer may be
a contract based on
drawings and
approximate
quantities.
Measurement
contracts can also be
based on drawings
and prices or price
lists. A variant of it is
a measurable fixed-
term contract under
which a single work
can be initiated as
part of a work plan by
instructions, and
pricing is based on
rates related to the
types of work that
may form part of the
plan.

COST REIMBURSE
CONTRACT

 These jobs are


sometimes referred to
as "cost plus" or
"original cost"
contracts, which are
based on the sum of
the actual costs of
total labor, plant and
materials, and add a
certain amount of
expenses to cover
management
Expenses and profits.
 The amount of
overheads and profits
can be fixed amounts,
percentages or other
repayments.
 This type of contract
is usually only used
when other
alternatives cannot be
used in the project or
there is a spirit of
cooperation, because
this may cause a great
risk to the customer.

ADVANTAGES
 Accountability due to
competitive choices;
 All bidding
contractors bid on the
same basis;
 The design leader and
the customer can
have a direct impact,
which can promote
high-level functions
and improve the
quality of the overall
design;
 The certainty of the
price when the
contract is awarded;
 Contract changes
(changes) are
relatively easy to
arrange and manage;
and
 A tried-and-tested
procurement method
that the market is
very familiar with.

DISADVANTAGES
 Complete contract
documents can be
generated in time.
Can produce
incomplete design
bidding documents,
but can reduce costs
and time certainty,
and may cause
disputes
 The overall project
duration may be
longer than other
procurement methods
because the strategy
is continuous and
construction cannot
be started before the
design is completed
 The contractor did
not appoint them to
participate in the
design or planning of
the project during the
design stage.
