Document background
The Consortium Agreement Construction Project is a critical legal document used in Nigerian construction projects where multiple parties combine their expertise, resources, and capabilities to undertake large-scale construction works. This agreement is particularly relevant for complex infrastructure projects requiring diverse technical expertise and substantial resources that a single contractor cannot provide. The document ensures compliance with Nigerian local content laws, construction regulations, and environmental requirements while establishing clear governance structures for project execution. It is commonly used in both public and private sector projects, particularly where international expertise needs to be combined with local construction capabilities. The agreement addresses key aspects such as risk sharing, profit distribution, project management, and dispute resolution mechanisms, while ensuring alignment with Nigerian legal requirements and industry standards.
