Adapting to the 2024 JCT D&B Amendments: Practical Insights for Contractors and Employers 

As the construction industry evolves, staying updated on contractual frameworks is crucial.  The Joint Contracts Tribunal (JCT) has introduced several amendments in 2024 to its popular design and build contract, reshaping how key parties in the building process manage risk, responsibility, and collaboration.   

Join us for this upcoming webinar where we unpack these changes and discuss their implications for contractors, employers, and legal professionals alike.  This session will provide a comprehensive overview of the latest amendments, including modifications aimed at increasing project flexibility and streamlining dispute resolution processes.   

We will explore how the new clauses and provisions impact risk allocation and liability within the contract and in particular:   

  • The notification of relevant matters and relevant events 
  • The execution of contracts;  
  • Extension of time and loss and expense provisions;  
  • Building safety legislation;  
  • Changes to design liability; 
  • Price fluctuation options;  
  • Termination; and  
  • Dispute resolution.  

The purpose of this webinar will be to take you through the intricacies of the 2024 amendments and share practical tips for negotiating and managing these revised contracts.  Delegates will also gain valuable insights to stay compliant, mitigate risks, and effectively manage contract obligations in an increasingly complex regulatory environment.
