This edition is based on BKK's standard agreements AB 04 and ABT 06 only when they have been incorporated into the parties' contract. BKK has stated that work on replacing standard agreements is ongoing and that new versions are expected no earlier than the latter part of 2027. These are self-produced work templates – not original text, licensed standard terms, or a legal certificate.

Overview · Meetings · Decisions · Actions · Variations & delays · Participants · Documents · Approval · Read me.
Track the number of registered meetings, decision cases, open actions, verified tasks, variation/delay issues, and objections. Status lists reduce the risk of ambiguous categories. Empty rows are not counted as registered cases. An internal status field does not constitute automatic legal acceptance or amendment of the contract.
How to use the construction meeting minutes
- Check which contract applies and whether AB 04, ABT 06, or other specific conditions are actually agreed upon.
- Appoint a minute-taker and verify the authority of the client's and contractor's representatives.
- Use the invitation and agenda (file 02) and distribute relevant contract and project documentation.
- Document the meeting using file 01. Differentiate between information, proposals, decisions, and objections.
- Assign each decision, task, and variation/delay issue a traceable ID. Link to documents and minute versions.
- Check requirements regarding writing, authority, and notification for changes, delays, and time/cost consequences.
- Send out the minutes according to the contract's routines and document the approval and any objections.
- Follow up on responsible parties and verification in the action file and Excel registry; archive previous minute versions.
Construction meetings according to AB 04 and ABT 06 – important limitations
BKK's AB 04 and ABT 06 are contractual terms, not laws. They only apply if the contract refers to them. When applied, there are rules regarding construction meetings, minute-taking, and approval. A record in the minutes may, under certain contractual conditions, be significant for requirements regarding written form and as evidence. However, a discussion or unapproved internal note does not automatically constitute an authorized variation order, a binding price agreement, or a correct delay notification.
The contract's special provisions, amendments, the authority of representatives, and deadlines must always be checked. In case of uncertainty, separate formal notifications should be sent and documented.
The template does not replace construction contracts, variation agreements, formal delay or notification letters, work environment plans, or planning and building act (PBL) inspection plans. It does not provide official approval and is not adapted for every consumer contract, where other rules may apply. All fields are intended to be filled with actual project data.

Frequently Asked Questions
Must construction meetings be recorded?
When AB 04 or ABT 06 have been agreed upon, the standard terms contain specific provisions regarding construction meetings and minutes. What applies in an individual project is governed by the contract and any deviations.
Is approved construction meeting minutes legally binding?
A record in the minutes can be significant evidence and, under certain circumstances, fulfill contractual requirements for written form. The legal effect depends on the contract, authorization, content, distribution, and any approval. The template does not guarantee any specific legal effect.
Is a variation form included?
This package includes a log for variation and delay issues during the meeting, but not a replacement for a separate variation order or delay notification. A separate variation product is available in our assortment.
Do I get an English master template?
No. The minute and registry templates are in Swedish. A separate English User Guide for international project teams is included.
Does the Excel file have ready-made project decisions?
No. All registries start without fictitious cases. The dashboard shows zero until data is added.
