Answer» Right option is (d) Additional resources are required to measure work and certify payments To ELABORATE: Option “Additional resources are required to measure work and certify payments” is disadvantage. The disadvantages include: • Additional resources are required to measure work and certify payments. • The CLIENT does not have a final PRICE when committing to starting work. • It is difficult for contractors to plan long-term resources and so might mean changes to personnel with loss of continuity. • Contractors may be tempted to front-load costs in case later work does not materialise. • There is no real INCENTIVE for contractors to treat such work with any sense of urgency and its best staff will be placed on the projects where the contractor is CARRYING more risk.
