Clause X6

Bonus for Early Completion

Purpose

The Employer pays a bonus if the Contractor achieves Completion before the Completion Date. The bonus amount and calculation method are stated in the Contract Data.

Practical Application

The bonus motivates early completion and shares the benefit with the Contractor. The bonus is paid when the Supervisor certifies Completion.

Common Pitfalls

The bonus is typically a fixed daily or weekly amount. If CEs extend the Completion Date, the bonus calculation may still use the original Completion Date — check the Contract Data wording.
