JCT forms The JCT standard forms continue to dominate the construction contracts market: within the survey sample, 88% of all contracts by number employed a JCT standard form, up from 79% in 2007 and close to the 91% in 1998 and 2001. By value, the proportion of contracts employing one of the JCT family of contracts rose from 62% in 2007, the second lowest figure recorded in the 25 years survey history, to 67% in 2010 but still lower than the long term average. Table 5: Long Term Trends in the use of JCT Standard Forms Percentage of total number 1985 1987 1989 1991 1993 1995 1998 2001 2004 2007 2010 % % % % % % % % % % % 81 86 81 78 82 85 91 91 78 79 88 Percentage of total value 70 74 81 61 80 76 68 79 70 62 67 By value the proportion has always recorded a slightly lower percentage than by number. This is because higher value schemes have had a greater tendency to employ some alternative form of contract such as construction management, NEC or PPC 2000. In 2010, only 54% of contracts over £10m employed a JCT contract with NEC closing the gap with 39% of such contracts. The 2007 survey identified that 1998 versions of the JCT contracts were still in regular use. However less than 2% of JCT contracts used in 2010 were of 1998 (or earlier) vintage. Of these, the 1998 Minor Works edition was the most commonly still encountered Table 6 plots the breakdown by type of JCT form, showing a comparison with previous surveys. Page 13
