ICE endorses NEC

For those of you who perhaps have missed this recent announcement, ICE has withdrawn from its own conditions of contract and will now solely endorse the NEC3 suite of contracts. There is a joint statement to this effect from ICE, ACE & CECA below. NEC is instigating transitional guidance for ICE contract users and will be available shortly - see www.neccontract.com

NEC student research

I wonder if anyone has done a survey of the most popular dissertation topics - NEC must be up there?!

Anyway, another quick questionnaire for you to kindly assist with.

NEC or NEC3 or ECC or EEC?

There seems to bit a bit of confusion with the NEC acryonyms looking at articles and Users' Group helpline queries!

Often we get the question...we are using NEC3 Option C or NEC Option C - well, we know it's a target cost form of contract, but which particular NEC contract?

NEC is basically now a brand name. Within the NEC family there are contracts, guidance notes and flow charts. So, NEC is a generic brand name (not to be confused with the NEC near Birmingham!); NEC3 is the third edition of the NEC suite of documents; ECC is an abbreviation of just one of the NEC contracts, likely to be the NEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract (so hopefully you can see how we NEC2 ECC and NEC3 ECC now). EEC is nothing to do with NEC at all, it's a game that member states of Europe play!

Clear as mud?!
