Publisher's Synopsis
"PSA/I With Quantities" is a standard form of contract, for use in both the private and public sectors for UK building and civil engineering works, developed from "Form GC/Work/1 - General Conditions of Government Contracts for Building and Civil Engineering Works, Edition 3 - December 1989, Revised 1990". It is intended for use with Bills of Quantities, where all or most of the quantities are firm and not subject to re-measurement, giving a lump sum contract subject to adjustment for variations ordered. The contractual effect of "PSA/1" is intended to be substantially the same as the effect of "GC/Works/1", but features which would only be appropriate in the case of Central Government Employers have been suitably amended. For example, under "PSA/l" very few decisions by or on behalf of the Employer are final and conclusive, and the Employer may not terminate the Contract at will.
