English

Subject field(s)
  • Execution of Work (Construction)
DEF

The body politic and corporate entrusted by the owner to manage the construction of a project.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Exécution des travaux de construction
DEF

Entreprise à qui gère les travaux de construction pour le compte du maître de l'ouvrage.

OBS

La définition de «gérant de construction» énoncée ci-dessus vise à clarifier le sens du terme et à déraciner l'usage fautif de «gérant de construction» dans le sens de «directeur de travaux». À titre d'exemple, citons le cas où l'entreprise ABC retient les services de l'entreprise XYZ pour assurer la gérance des travaux de construction. Ainsi, l'entreprise XYZ devient gérant de construction.
