English term or phrase: novation
Aus einer Leistungsbeschreibung mit Leistungsprogramm, die ein Logistikunternehmen erstellt hat, das die fertig entwickelte Logistikimmobilie von einem Entwickler/Bauträger (Developer) pachten/mieten möchte.

Ausgangstext:

Mechanical & Plumbing
Developer will procure and may be instructed to accept novation of Tenant’s designer.

Vorläufige Übersetzung:

Heizung, Lüftung, Klimatechnik & Sanitär (HLKS)
Der Entwickler/Bauträger vergibt die Leistungen und kann angehalten/angewiesen werden, den Planer des Mieters/Pächters zu übernehmen/zu beauftragen.

Bin am Zweifeln, ob Vertragsübernahme ("novation of contract") gemeint sein könnte und ob dabei nur die Vertragspartei ausgetauscht werden soll. Ergibt aber nicht viel Sinn. Der Tenant’s Designer hat bisher eine Regelplanung mit Leistungsprogramm erstellt, die darstellt, wie weltweit die Logistikimmobilien eines bestimmten Typs für das Unternehmen ausgeführt werden sollen. Für die standortbezogene Planung ist sicher ein völlig anderer Vertrag erforderlich; die Verträge zwischen Tenant und Tenant’s Designer dürften eigentlich aus diesem Grund ungeeignet sein. Meines Erachtens kann man den Bauträger nur bitten, eine Zusammenarbeit mit dem bisherigen Planer des Pächters zu erwägen. Wäre diese Übersetzung akkurat bzw. sinngemäß korrekt? Danke im Voraus.

Novation in construction contracts – what does it really mean ...

Novation is a significant feature of building and construction projects, particularly in relation to design and construct (D&C) procurement.

The effect of a novation is to discharge the original contract between two parties (the continuing party and the outgoing party) and substitute it with a new contract between the continuing party and a new party (the incoming party). The incoming party must perform the contractual obligations (under the new contract) that were formerly owed by the outgoing party under the original contract.

For example, it is common under a D&C arrangement for the principal to engage a consultant to carry out design works prior to the principal engaging a head contractor to carry out the construction works. At some point during the project (for example when the design has reached a particular stage) the principal may novate the appointments of its design consultants to the head contractor. Novation fundamentally changes the risk allocation in the project, as the head contractor generally then assumes responsibility for the entire design (including the prior design work).

Novation vs assignment

Novation is often confused with the concept of assignment, however these are two distinct concepts:
• Novation transfers both the rights and obligations of the outgoing party to the incoming party, whereas assignment is a transfer of rights only. It is not possible to assign contractual obligations to another party.

Difference between assignment and novation

Transferring an interest in a construction contract from one party to another can be done by either assignment or novation.

By comparison, novation is a process in which the contractual rights and obligations are transferred to a third party. The benefits and the burdens can be transferred by a novation agreement, rather than just the benefits as with assignment. In building design and construction, novation normally refers to the process by which design consultants are initially contracted to the client, but are then 'novated' to the contractor.

Introduction

Novation is a process by which contractual rights and obligations are transferred from one party to another. Whilst the benefits of a contract can be transferred by assignment, if the parties wish to transfer both the benefits and the burdens then this must be done by a novation agreement.

A novation occurs when there is a rescission of one contract and the substitution of a fresh contract in which the original contractual obligations are carried out by different parties. In building design and construction, novation normally refers to the process by which design consultants are initially contracted to the client, but are then 'novated' to the contractor.

This is common on design and build projects where the design team are appointed by a client to carry out initial studies or prepare a concept or detailed design, but then when a contractor is appointed to carry out or complete the design and construct the works, the design team (or part of it) is novated to work for them.

This can be beneficial to clients as it maintains continuity between pre-tender and post-tender design whilst leaving sole responsibility for designing and building the project with the contractor. Novation effectively over-writes the contractual history to give the impression that the consultant has worked for the contractor throughout the project

NB. The process of novation in itself does not make a contractor responsible for any design carried out for the client prior to novating their contract. To achieve this the building contract needs to specifically state that the contractor has examined the design and adopted it.
