Description
What is a project’s Practical Completion and Hand-over?
Typically, Practical Completion is the stage when:
- a Project is coming to an end
- the scope of a project has been completed in accordance with the contract by the Contractor
- all relevant safety and statutory requirements and certification (with the exception of minor defects or minor omissions) are met
- the facility is reasonably suitable for hand-over to Client from the Contractor. This allows the Client to get familiar with the new facility and equipment, carry out training of operators and product commissioning.
When the works reach this stage, the Contractor will hand over possession of the facility with all compliance certificates to the Client and once the financial obligations are settled under the terms of the contract.
The final “Hand-Over” occurs when all the scope of the project, outstanding defects or minor omissions and testing/commissioning are completed. It is the final contractual milestone between Contractor and Client in a Project as shown in the flowchart below.
