NEC4 contracts

Secondary Option X29 Climate Change

NEC Contracts is a family of contracts that facilitates the implementation of sound project management and procurement principles and practices, as well as defining legal relationships. 

NEC is unique. It is the only standard contract whose development has been led by project practitioners and not lawyers. Their insight means that the use of NEC stimulates good management of the relationships within the project and the work the parties deliver together. Users include organisations like Sydney Water.  

The Secondary Option X29 Climate Change was introduced to support, incentivise and tangibly demonstrate carbon reduction initiatives on future builds. It is designed to help NEC users in their drive towards achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions and other related climate change and biodiversity targets. You can find further insights.
