PELAKSANAAN KONTRAK KERJA PADA PEKERJAAN KONSTRUKSI

Abstrak

This research examines the implementation of work contracts in construction projects in Indonesia by delving into both technical and legal aspects in a balanced manner. Through a descriptive qualitative approach and case studies on three government building projects in Central Java during the 2022-2023 period, it was found that the effectiveness of construction work contracts is influenced by the clarity of clause formulation, management team competence, and communication between parties. The main problems in contract implementation stem from differences in document interpretation and inability to anticipate field changes, resulting in completion delays and cost overruns of up to 15-25% from the initial value. Human resource capacity development in understanding contractual aspects and the application of information technology-based monitoring systems have proven to contribute significantly in minimizing dispute potential. The research results recommend standardization of clauses governing changes in work scope, payment mechanisms, and dispute resolution procedures by considering the risk balance between users and construction service providers. This research provides a foundation for developing adaptive contract models that are responsive to the dynamics of national infrastructure development.
