    Question

    When the quantities of the work items are difficult to be quantified and the rate analysis is also a complex issue, but still the contractor is willing to undertake a work, then the type of Contract best suited is:

    A.

    Turn Key Contract

    B.

    Labour Contract

    C.

    Lump Sum Contract

    D.

    Item Rate Contract

    Correct option is C


    In a Lump Sum Contract, the contractor agrees to complete the entire project for a fixed total cost.
    It is suitable when:
    Quantities of work items are difficult to quantify accurately.
    Rate analysis is complex.
    Both parties agree on a lump sum payment, avoiding detailed measurements for payments.
    Why Lump Sum Contract is Preferred in This Case:
    It simplifies the payment structure as the contractor undertakes the work for a predetermined price without needing to provide detailed measurements or itemized breakdowns.
    It transfers the risk of cost variations to the contractor.
