Price and payment are important provisions in every construction contract. Contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers all require a certain amount of cash to finance their ongoing operations. For this reason, payment terms usually are spelled out in great detail in construction contracts. The interrelation between time and money is always of major importance to both the Owner and the General Contractor.
