    This document provides an overview and comparison of different contract forms for community projects: labor only, labor and material, and full contract. A labor only contract places most responsibility on supporting agencies but allows communities to gain management experience. A labor and material contract transfers more responsibility to communities while boosting the local economy. A full contract gives all responsibility to the community for technical execution but requires strong technical assistance from experts to be successful. Each contract form has advantages and disadvantages for the community and supporting organizations.

    Labour and Material

All responsibility passes to the community including the technical execution of the works. This relieves any burden that may be placed on the Municipal authority.

    Full Contract

    Can only be done with technical assistance from the private sector, government or an NGO. The communities need to develop a good understanding of planning and organising the management and construction of the works. The community may not appreciate the need for good technical advice, and the cost of that advice if provided by the private sector. This could lead to heavy dependence on the support agency, which may or may not be a signatory to the contract.
