Who is responsible for nominated subcontractor delays?

Responsibility for nominated subcontractor delays typically falls on the contractor who selected the subcontractor, as they are accountable for managing the project's timelines and ensuring that all parties meet their obligations. However, if the delays are caused by unforeseen circumstances, such as site conditions or changes requested by the client, liability may shift. It often depends on the specific terms outlined in the contract between the parties involved. Ultimately, clear communication and contract stipulations are key to determining responsibility.
