Construction industry is a huge and big industry. The industry involved so many works; so many trade, workers, material, contract document and so many things. The contract document usually is from the (Request for Proposal) that submitted by the tenderer that then be evaluated by the tender committee. If the entire requirement is fulfilled, the Request for Proposal is usually converted to the Agreement of Contract or Contract Document or called Condition of Contract. The Condition of Contract may be altered by the client to suit the price tendered by contractor. There will be some terms added by the client to make the Condition of Contract clearer and understandable. One of the terms is mutual termination agreement.
