Questão jurídica principal
Whether the disputed 'divers - travaux d'adaptation - petit matériel' items were agreed as a lump-sum price under the construction contract.
Decisão extraída
No lump-sum price was agreed for those items; the contract and precontract documents only fixed the amounts to be included in the bid, not an unconditional forfait due irrespective of actual work.
Fundamentação extraída
The wording of the tender and the memorandum, read as a whole under the reliance principle, showed only predefined amounts inserted by the owner, while the broader contract expressly struck out a general 'price forfaitaire' clause. The lower court's opposite inference was unsupported.
