This issue of The International Construction Law Review begins with an article from Tony Marshall, of Hogan Lovells International LLP, on the Engineering Advancement Association of Japan’s revised Process Plant Model Form of Contract (at page 138). This has been a long-term endeavour of international impact. Marshall details some of the key features of the Process Plant form which are carried over from the first edition and examines the revisions introduced into the new 2010 edition, including the expansion of the entire agreement clause, alterations to the dispute resolution provision, and removal of the provisions for nominated subcontractors, amongst other amendments. Long-standing readers will recall that in 1987 we covered the arrival of the ENAA form and that we have tracked its evolution over the years—as can be seen from the list at the end of the article. For newer readers Tony Marshall has, however, helpfully included a brief overview of the ENAA’s other model forms. His article also serves as a useful introduction to the ENAA model forms of contract. From the beginning the ENAA has prudently sought and received advice on the drafting of the conditions from highly regarded legal advisers, including the author of this excellent commentary.
