The JCT Contracts Digital Service, the successor to JCT Forms on Disk, is a one-stop service that provides you with all the contractual documentation you need for your building and construction work.

Presented on CD and with optional online updates, this service helps you to create your own custom-built documents easily and quickly. A step-by-step question and answer session will take you through every field in turn, enabling you to leave out irrelevant information and streamline your contract to fit your exact requirements.

The JCT Contracts Digital Service will:

  • Allow you to complete contracts using powerful Rapidocs technology - a step-by-step question and answer session, taking you through each field in turn - making the process as simple as possible
  • Let you view the contract when completing your Q & A session
  • Make it easy to exchange draft contracts between subscribers electronically
  • Enable you to build a library of clauses for insertion across contracts
  • Provide you with practical guidance via links to JCT 05 contract guides
  • With the online update service option, ensure that you are using the latest version of the contract - online updates will update the contract being used if an Amendment or new version has been issued
