A construction purchase contract governs the sale of materials, equipment, or custom-fabricated goods for a construction project. Justee reviews these contracts against UCC Article 2 (sale of goods), §2-207 battle-of-the-forms, warranty disclaimers under §2-316, and standard construction-supply norms to flag delivery, warranty, and risk-of-loss risks.

Construction purchase contracts are governed by UCC Article 2 (sale of goods) — adopted in all states except Louisiana — even when integrated into broader construction contracts. UCC §2-207 (battle of the forms) determines whose terms control when buyer's purchase order and seller's acknowledgment exchange different terms; the default rule is that additional terms become part of the contract between merchants unless they materially alter or are objected to. UCC §2-316 governs warranty disclaimers: implied warranties of merchantability (§2-314) and fitness for particular purpose (§2-315) can be disclaimed but only if conspicuous (typically capital letters, bold, or larger font). Risk of loss under §2-509 turns on shipping terms (FOB origin vs. destination). Cure rights under §2-508, perfect tender rule under §2-601, and remedy limitations under §2-718 (liquidated damages) and §2-719 (consequential damages exclusion) all apply. Justee analyzes construction purchase contracts against UCC Article 2, §2-207 battle-of-the-forms, §2-316 conspicuousness, and standard construction-materials precedents.

What We Check

Verifies UCC §2-207 battle-of-the-forms outcome

Tests §2-316 warranty disclaimer conspicuousness

Reviews FOB / risk-of-loss terms

Validates remedy limitations and consequential damages

Flags lead-time, delivery, and force-majeure issues

Common Risks We Identify

Disclaimer not conspicuous — implied warranties survive

FOB origin shifts loss to buyer mid-transit

No cure right — perfect-tender rule strictly applied

Liquidated damages clause unenforceable as penalty

Force majeure overbroad covers seller breach

Hypothetical Case Study by Justee

Justee recently analyzed a purchase order with buyer's standard terms vs. a seller acknowledgment with different warranty disclaimer and FOB origin for a Texas commercial GC purchasing $750K of curtain-wall glass from a Chicago supplier.

Issue Found: Under §2-207, the seller's acknowledgment "expressly conditional on assent to additional terms" did not become part of the contract; instead, default UCC rules filled gaps. The seller's warranty disclaimer was in 8-point regular type — not conspicuous under §2-316. The implied warranties of merchantability survived. When the glass arrived with thermal stress fractures, the seller could not disclaim and owed $185K in replacement costs.

Justee Recommendation: For all future POs, we now use a written master agreement signed before any individual order — eliminating §2-207 battle-of-forms exposure entirely. Where a master is impractical, we standardize a PO acknowledgment with conspicuous (caps, bold) warranty terms and an explicit acceptance procedure.

Non-Conspicuous Warranty Disclaimer

Problematic Language

"Seller disclaims all implied warranties including merchantability and fitness for purpose."

Recommended Language

"WARRANTY DISCLAIMER. SELLER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY (UCC §2-314) AND THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE (UCC §2-315). THIS DISCLAIMER IS CONSPICUOUS AND BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES READING IT BY EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT. [The express limited warranty in Section X is the sole and exclusive warranty.]"

Why it matters: Capitalization, separation, and explicit acknowledgment satisfy §2-316's conspicuousness requirement. Lowercase boilerplate disclaimers routinely fail.
