The Orange Book, Minor Works, 2nd Edition, 2003, paperback

Publisher: IChemE
Publication year: 2003
Extent: Paperback, 29 pages

For over 45 years IChemE have partnered with highly experienced legal and industry professionals to publish their acclaimed Forms of Contract. The new editions have been revised to reflect best practice in project delivery and the latest developments in law and project implementation.

The Orange Book is invaluable for use with minor packages of work involving an existing process plant. It is applicable where the far more comprehensive forms for lump-sum and reimbursable contracts would be inappropriate and too complex.

The clauses have been amended and brought in line with the current Red, Green, Burgundy and Yellow Books, wherever appropriate and include new legislation covering the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996, the Arbitration Act 1996, and the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

This Form of Contract contains a model form of agreement and general conditions, supplemented with detailed guide notes to assist the user in preparing a contract.

Anyone planning to enter into a contract on or after 1st October 2011 based on the IChemE Orange Book 2nd Edition should ensure that these amendments are incorporated into the contract.
