Construction Contract Agreement
| For many years, most construction work was done on a printed construction agreement offered at hefty cost per page by one of the architectural, engineering or trade associations. If a change was needed in the printed form, you had to write between the lines or make notes in the margin or attach a separate sheet. That made for a messy construction agreement and resulted in more than a few disputes. |

Now that nearly everyone in business has a computer and a word processor (like MS Word or WordPad), it makes more sense to buy construction contracts in digital form, either on disk or by download off the Web. You could call this form of contractor software "Generation II" in the development of modern Texas construction contract agreements. This is clearly a step in the right direction. It's easy to make changes, additions and deletions to a digital form. But there's still a problem: flexibility. You're stuck with whatever boilerplate contract clauses the contract's author considered important. No stock contract covers even a small fraction of the thousands of situations that make every construction project unique. Worse, stock contracts seldom explain what each clause means or when each clause should be used. That's still left up to you.
Texas Construction Contract Writer is "Generation III" in Texas construction contractor software. CCW isn't a digital form you change with a word processor -- though CCW includes a word processor. CCW isn't a stock contract in portable document format (PDF) – though CCW output can be either RTF or PDF. CCW is best understood as an interview. Answer the questions to write a contract that fits your job precisely.
Texas Construction Contract Writer helps you select from a library of over a thousand Texas construction contract clauses. Just answer the interview questions to draft a contract that fits your job perfectly and complies precisely with Texas law.
