The Simple Building Contract is specifically designed for construction projects in Malta where a clear, standardized agreement is needed between an employer and a contractor. This contract type is particularly suitable for moderate-scale construction projects where the scope and requirements are well-defined, but don't require the complexity of major construction contracts. It incorporates essential elements required under Maltese law, including compliance with the Building Regulation Act, planning requirements, and health and safety regulations. The document is structured to provide comprehensive coverage of construction basics while maintaining flexibility for project-specific adjustments. It's commonly used for residential developments, small commercial projects, and renovation works where the value and complexity are intermediate, typically including detailed specifications, payment terms, completion requirements, and dispute resolution mechanisms aligned with Maltese legal requirements.
