The CIC Scope of Services comprises lists of tasks which are to be undertaken by all members of the project team. From these lists, parties can draw up schedules of services for the appointment of consultants, specialists and contractors by allocating the tasks to whoever is to undertake them. All participants therefore know what they are to do, and what others are to do as well. Responsibilities are transparent, and the inter-dependence of the various roles is clearly demonstrated. The result is a set of services that are fully integrated across all disciplines and roles. The CIC Scope of Services are for use on major building projects and can be used with the CIC Consultants' Contract Conditions, or with other forms of contract, and with whatever procurement route is chosen. Whilst customers/users can complete The CIC Scope of Services by hand, the easiest and simplest way to prepare the schedule of services for a contract will be to use the DefinIT allocation software package. Purchasers of a paper copy of the CIC Scope of Services will be provided with a licence code which gives a credit for one licence payment, enabling them to use the software for any number of draft documents and print the services for one concluded contract (client and one participant) on a project. Licences for additional concluded contracts can then be purchased on-line, depending upon the number of participants on the project.
