Environmental construction supervision has become an important instrument in construction projects. Against this background, the bdla has developed a current model contract for environmental construction supervision and makes it available online free of charge.

This provides sound guidance for the drafting of contracts. The individual contract contents define the essential regulation requirements for a UBB and can therefore also serve as a checklist for individual regulations. In a supplementary annotated version, important practical advice is also provided.

The model makes it clear that the respective contract can only be developed with the necessary expertise. For example, special attention should be paid to the purpose of the assignment, if necessary with restrictions on the catalogue of services or tasks. The core of every UBB agreement is a project-specific, individual service description.

The model contract thus not only directly serves a proper agreement between client and contractor, but also a project realisation in conformity with the approval and thus ultimately environmental protection and nature conservation. Concrete proposals for regulation concern, for example, the subject matter of the contract and its basis, the environmental/nature conservation issues to be taken into account, the consultation and coordination obligations as well as rights to issue instructions in the event of imminent environmental damage.
