Joanne is preparing a contract for the construction of a large shopping center.

The project includes 52 retail units, several restaurants, and a parking facility.

Joanne's company has contracted Construct Ltd under a Turnkey project.

She is using a Gantt chart as a schedule in the contract.

Answer Options:

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The correct answer is Activity Schedule (p.60). A Gantt chart is a time-based project planning tool, typically used in Activity Schedule contracts, where payments are tied to the completion of specific tasks. Other payment methods, such as Fixed Lump Sum and Bill of Quantity, do not rely on this approach. [P.60]

I believe it's definitely not a Bill of Quantity, but I need to double-check if it aligns with the Activity Schedule option.

I'm a bit confused; could it be a Cost Reimbursable? I feel like I read something about that in relation to Turnkey contracts.

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think a Turnkey project usually involves a fixed price, so maybe it's A?

I think this might be a Fixed Lump Sum since it's a Turnkey project, but I'm not entirely sure.
